Alva Noë's "Out of Our Heads: Why You Are Not Your Brain and Other Lessons from the Biology of Consciousness" challenges the widely held belief that consciousness is solely a product of brain activity.

He draws on insights from neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy to develop a comprehensive account of consciousness.

The book is a significant contribution to the philosophy of mind, its ideas have had a profound impact on the field.
