About this content
Being You (2021) offers a new theory of consciousness. What does it mean to be you? Why do your experiences of the world, your selfhood, and your body feel the way they do? Combining neuroscience, philosophy, and a pinch of speculation, these abstracts argue that consciousness is not as mysterious as it seems – it is deeply entwined with our living, breathing bodies.
