Being You Anil Seth This radical theory of consciousness challenges our understanding of humanity itself. Consciousness is the great unsolved mystery in our scientific understanding of the brain. Somewhere, somehow, inscribed in the brain is everything that makes you you. But how do we grasp what happens in the brain to turn mere electrical impulses into the vast range of perceptions, thoughts and emotions we feel? Anil Seth charts the developments in our understanding of consciousness, revealing radical breakthroughs that transform the way we think about the self. Drawing on original research and interdisciplinary collaborations, Being You puts forward a revolutionary framework of how we experience the world and our place within it. ‘Anil Seth thinks clearly and sharply on one of the hardest problems of science and philosophy, cutting through the weeds with a scientist’s mind and a storyteller’s skill.’ Adam Rutherford
