"Being You: A New Science of Consciousness"

"Being You: A New Science of Consciousness" explores how our sense of self and conscious experience arise from complex brain processes. It challenges traditional ideas by proposing that consciousness is fundamentally about the brain’s information-sharing and integration patterns. The book combines insights from neuroscience, physics, and psychology to explain how personal identity emerges and how consciousness might be understood scientifically. It emphasizes that being oneself involves ongoing, dynamic processes in the brain that create our subjective experience, helping us better grasp what it means to be a conscious, individual person.
