Patrick House
À propos de ce contenu audio
The way each person interprets and models reality is remarkably different. Some see vivid mental images when they close their eyes and can play entire conversations back like a recording. Others experience only blankness or silence. Uncovering your own mental quirks can take some detective work; the only way to find out what it’s like to be you is to ask someone else what it’s like to be them.
Neuroscientist Patrick House reveals the surprising potential variations of our individual imaginations. He explores the many ways our unique processing of the world shapes who we are and what we like. Conditions like anendophasia (a lack of an inner voice) and aphantasia (a lack of mental imagery) demonstrate just how much our mental experiences can differ, impacting everything from our chosen professions and romantic lives to our basic communication preferences.
Subjective Realities offers us a new way to connect with others and understand how we relate to the world. In this elegant and concise book, House argues that there’s tangible value in taking the time to discover the nitty-gritty details of other minds, and our own.

Praise for Subjective Realities
“House asks deeply probing questions about the workings of subjectivity, exploring them with great subtlety and elegance. This book is a pleasure to read, endlessly stimulating and insightful."
—Robert Sapolsky, bestselling author of Behave and Determined
“A beautiful look at humanity’s diverse interiority. Whether we have an inner monologue, dream in color, or hear constant screeching noises, these subjective variations are far more than quirks—they shape the professions we choose, the people we love, and how we relate to the world around us.”
—Christof Koch, Chief Scientist, Tiny Blue Dot Foundation and author of Then I Am Myself the World
“With a born storyteller's gift for a well-told tale, Patrick House steers us through the switchbacks of intellect, imagination, and perceptual torque with the agility, speed, and ease you'd expect of a V12 supercar engine—or a neuroscientist of House's caliber and pedigree. A mind-bending adventure, a thrilling ride, and a dazzling read.”
—Marya Hornbacher, bestselling author of Madness and Wasted
