The Mystery of Consciousness: A Journey Through the Mind
What if everything you believe about your conscious experience is an illusion? What if the "you" reading these words doesn't actually exist in the way you think? These questions form the heart of Susan Blackmore's fascinating exploration of consciousness through the dual lenses of neuroscience and Zen meditation. Unlike purely academic treatments of consciousness, this journey combines rigorous scientific inquiry with deep personal practice, using the author's own mind as a laboratory for investigating our most fundamental assumptions about reality, self, and experience.
