In The Social Leap, William von Hippel lays out a revolutionary hypothesis, tracing human development through three critical evolutionary inflection points to explain how events in our distant past shape our lives today. From the mundane, such as why we exaggerate, to the surprising, such as why we believe our own lies and why fame and fortune are as likely to bring misery as happiness, the implications are far-reaching and extraordinary.

What does it mean to “be you” - that is, to have a specific, conscious experience of the world around you and yourself within it? There may be no more elusive or fascinating question. Historically, humanity has considered the nature of consciousness to be a primarily spiritual or philosophical inquiry, but scientific research is now mapping out compelling biological theories and explanations for consciousness and selfhood.

What is consciousness? How do physical processes in the brain give rise to the self-aware mind and to feelings as profoundly varied as love or hate, aesthetic pleasure or spiritual yearning? These questions today are among the most hotly debated issues among scientists and philosophers. Philosopher David J. Chalmers offers a cogent analysis of this heated debate as he unveils a major new theory of consciousness, one that rejects the prevailing reductionist trend of science, while offering provocative insights into the relationship between mind and brain.

A terrifying vision of scientific progress without moral limits, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein leads the listener on an unsettling journey from the sublime beauty of the Swiss alps to the desolate waste of the arctic circle. Obsessed with the idea of creating life itself, Victor Frankenstein plunders graveyards for the material with which to fashion a new being, shocking his creation to life with electricity. But this botched creature, rejected by its creator and denied human companionship, sets out to destroy Frankenstein and all that he holds dear.

In Your Brain Is a Time Machine, brain researcher and best-selling author Dean Buonomano draws on evolutionary biology, physics, and philosophy to present his influential theory of how we tell and perceive time. The human brain, he argues, is a complex system that not only tells time but creates it; it constructs our sense of chronological flow and enables "mental time travel" - simulations of future and past events.

"Forty-four percent of the American population is convinced that Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead sometime in the next 50 years," writes Sam Harris. "Imagine the consequences if any significant component of the U.S. government actually believed that the world was about to end and that its ending would be glorious. The fact that nearly half of the American population apparently believes this...should be considered a moral and intellectual emergency."

The Happiness Hypothesis is about ten Great Ideas. Each chapter is an attempt to savor one idea that has been discovered by several of the world's civilizations—to question it in light of what we now know from scientific research, and to extract from it the lessons that still apply to our modern lives and illuminate the causes of human flourishing. Award-winning psychologist Jonathan Haidt, the author of The Righteous Mind, shows how a deeper understanding of the world's philosophical wisdom and its enduring maxims can enrich and even transform our lives.

Histoire
Anxiety affects more than forty million Americans—a number that continues to climb in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. While conventional medicine tends to view anxiety as a “neck-up” problem—that is, one of brain chemistry and psychology—the truth is that the origins of anxiety are rooted in the body. In The Anatomy of Anxiety, holistic psychiatrist Dr. Ellen Vora offers nothing less than a paradigm shift in our understanding of anxiety and mental health, suggesting that anxiety is not simply a brain disorder but a whole-body condition.

Awareness awakens you to the truth that you possess everything you need right now to be happy and fulfilled. Happiness is your natural state. You don't need to do anything to acquire it; you only need to drop something. This audiobook shows you what that is. There is not a single person who ever gave time to being aware who’s quality of life didn't change. You see life differently because you are different. You respond to people and situations differently. You see things you have never seen before. Beautiful things. You're much more energetic, much more alive.

Description
2020 Audie Finalist
As concise and enlightening as Seven Brief Lessons on Physics and Astrophysics for People in a Hurry, this mind-expanding dive into the mystery of consciousness is an illuminating meditation on the self, free will, and felt experience.
What is consciousness? How does it arise? And why does it exist? We take our experience of being in the world for granted. But the very existence of consciousness raises profound questions: Why would any collection of matter in the universe be conscious? How are we able to think about this? And why should we?
In this wonderfully accessible audiobook, Annaka Harris guides us through the evolving definitions, philosophies, and scientific findings that probe our limited understanding of consciousness. Where does it reside, and what gives rise to it? Could it be an illusion, or a universal property of all matter? As we try to understand consciousness, we must grapple with how to define it and, in the age of artificial intelligence, who or what might possess it.
Conscious offers lively and challenging arguments that alter our ideas about consciousness - allowing us to think freely about it for ourselves, if indeed we can.

This book was too short for me on such an interesting topic. I also found some of the arguments hard to follow. It was nice to have a book on this topic though as it is hard to come by.

Lucid, intriguing, and inspiring
Harris opens our minds to the fundamental mystery of consciousness, and invites us to think more deeply about it than simply it’s mechanics, but why it exists at all. I found myself nervously anticipating what insight or proposition she might raise next, and how, if true, this would change my basic assumptions about experience itself. I believe her intention here was to excite us to consider this fundamental mystery while also balk at those within the scientific community who close the door to the role of theory- and hypothesis-generation in exchange for pure application or experimentation. This is a laudable and worthy goal. My caution to Harris, and indeed to any reader, would be to not equate open-mindedness to the potential explanations of the nature of reality as evidence of their veracity—more work is yet needed.

A great little book into consciousness. I’ve always been of the believer that there was greater consciousness around us by the way plants move and dogs sense the need to comfort. This book gave me a name to the area of study so I can dig deeper into the mystery.

Intriguing, thought-provoking, and well-written
This is an insightful, well-researched, and though-provoking dive into the mystery of consciousness.
I love that Annaka takes an agnostic stance on consciousness ; she beautifully explores, unpacks and questions different theories and possibilities, and leaves the reader to decide how they want think about consciousness, instead of imposing or enforcing any one idea onto them.
I loved this book, and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys thinking about the mystery of being.

An excellent listen and an excellent voice
Thus book covers all the interesting fundamentals of how the mind works and the things we are blissfully unaware of and take for granted or mistakenly assume! I can’t speak for others but I found it a great book that covers some things I’ve read in the past and connected them to other information and knowledge that I wasn’t aware of. The book is short enough to get through fairly quickly without getting bogged down in the weeds or stalled out on specifics that wouldn’t add enough for the common reader who doesn’t have expert background. Annaka comes across as neutral and open minded and doesn’t necessarily take one side or another of the controversial topics that exist among some of these areas of neurology or psychology of the mind. She instead educates and entertains the reader with the best easiest to comprehend facts and mysteries of the known landscape of our consciousness and maybe even more importantly nudges the reader/listeners attention to the more vastly blind spots of the subject. Personally I can never be reminded enough about the inconsistency with how we humans ‘think’ our minds work and how they actually work. Always good to be aware of these things pertaining to our own lives and to understanding better the ones around us. My first book by Annaka but definitely not my last.
