    Description

    Anil Seth's radical new theory of consciousness challenges our understanding of perception and reality, doing for brain science what Dawkins did for evolutionary biology.

    Being you is not as simple as it sounds. Somehow, within each of our brains, billions of neurons create our everyday conscious experience. But how does this happen? Anil Seth's unique and groundbreaking theory of what it means to 'be you' challenges our understanding of perception and reality, doing for brain science what Dawkins did for evolutionary biology.

    Being You is an accessible, inspiring and eye-opening exploration of consciousness by one of the most remarkable pioneers working in science today.

    PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

    Commentaires

    "Anil Seth thinks clearly and sharply on one of the hardest problems of science and philosophy, cutting through weeds with a scientist's mind and a storyteller's skill." (Adam Rutherford) 

    "Seth provokes us to think about thinking...readable, relatable and gripping." (Alex Garland, director of Ex Machina

    "Offers a new cause for astonishment and wonder...a must-read for anyone seeking a better understanding of the brain and how nature sculpts the human experience." (Annaka Harris, author of Conscious

    Honest and enlightening

    Wonderful book, beautifully written and paced, totally honest with its materialistic bias, profound and full of science. It doesn't say anything about the mystery of "Being you" as a self-perceived self. But a lot to what it is to be a conscient organism. A delightful and insightful reading.

    Fascinating!!

    Well written and just an endlessly fascinating topic. Only part 2 about perception is a bit less interesting. Still Highly recommended!

    Great book on a very imp topic!

    This is the best book I've yet read in the topic of consciousness. Wealth of information. The foundations and the main theories are excellently explained. I'm having a fascinating intellectual journey with the concepts. After finishing the audiobook, I often try to observe my consciousness, perceived reality, thoughts and emotions, as well as others' through these paradigms! The theater of conscious self and agency is very strong, complex, mysterious and wonderful! Great work Anil Seth!

    Enlighting

    The model of beast machine really opened new horizons for me. It is both an eye opener and gives a deeper meaning of being human and consciousness

    Very interesting book and theory

    Seth is one of the leading researchers in consciousness studies and outlines here his theory of consciousness. As a researcher in a related field it was very interesting for me to hear about his ideas and theory, however not sure how easy to follow it would be (at least at some points), and to understand the depths of it, if it's the first book anyone reads on the topic. His personal stories are described skillfully and nicely demonstrate some of the ideas presented. Overall it was a very interesting read that made me want to learn more about his theory.
    Also, Seth does an excellent job in narrating his book.
