Summary of Conscious by Annaka Harris | Free Audiobook

A Brief Guide to the Fundamental Mystery of the Mind.

What is consciousness? Generally, you likely think of consciousness as what it means to be human. It is only human nature, however, to take the experience of being in the world for granted. After all, why would any collection of matter in the universe be conscious? How are we even able to think about consciousness? Even more so, why should we? Throughout Consciousness, author Annaka Harris will guide you through what consciousness is, where it came from, and whether or not being conscious is a key element in human behavior. As we continue to understand more about consciousness, the harder it becomes to define, and in the age of artificial intelligence, it becomes even harder to determine who or what might possess it. As you read, you’ll learn how plants and trees are more complex than we might think, what we can learn from LSD, and what split-brain patients can teach us about consciousness.
