A BOOK OF THE YEAR GUARDIAN, THE ECONOMIST, NEW STATESMAN,
FINANCIAL TIMES, BLOOMBERG 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. 'A brilliant beast of a book.' DAVID BYRNE 'Hugely
important.' JIM AL-KHALILI 'Masterly . . . An exhilarating book: a
vast-ranging, phenomenal achievement that will undoubtedly become a
seminal text.' GAIA VINCE, GUARDIAN Being You is not as simple as
it sounds. Somehow, within each of our brains, billions of neurons
work to create our conscious experience. How does this happen? Why
do we experience life in the first person? After over twenty years
researching the brain, world-renowned neuroscientist Anil Seth puts
forward a radical new theory of consciousness and self. His unique
theory of what it means to 'be you' challenges our understanding of
perception and reality and it turns what you thought you knew about
yourself on its head. '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 'A page-turner and a mind-blower . . . Beautifully
written, crystal clear, deeply insightful.' DAVID EAGLEMAN 'If you
read one book about conciousness, it must be Seth's. JULIAN
BAGGINI, WALL STREET JOURNAL 'Amazing.' RUSSELL BRAND 'Gripping.'
ALEX GARLAND 'I loved it.' MICHAEL POLLAN 'Fascinating.' FINANCIAL
TIMES 'Awe-inspring.' NEW STATESMAN 'Brilliant.' CLAIRE TOMALIN,
NEW YORK TIMES
