Publisher's summary

A scientist's exploration into the mysteries of the human mind.

Neuroscience studies the brain, but what does science have to say about the mind? A full examination of what we mean by the term "mind" has traditionally been the province of philosophers, but what might neuroscience teach us about it? How does the mind differ from consciousness? And how do we know who we really are?

In this book, noted neuroscientist and New York Times bestselling author Daniel J. Siegel, M.D., brings his characteristic sensitivity and interdisciplinary background to this most perplexing of topics. He explores the nature of the who, how, what, why, and when of your mind - of your self - from the perspective of neuroscience. Mind is the essence of our true nature, our deepest sense of being alive, here, right now, in this moment. How science explains it is truly one of the most exciting journeys into knowledge we can take.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Transformation through clarity!

If you ever wondered if there could be a clear and consilientbreading of the teachings of ancient wisdom and the findings of modern science, neuroscience/brain science then you have found it here with Dr. Dan’s book on Mind. In my experience, this is the most brilliant reading and explanation of systems theory and the implications of the findings of modern science and their ancient roots in the teachings of the wisdom of liberation. I deeply appreciate and love Dr. Dan’s heart/mind and vision for us, all of us.

Deep and Thought Provoking

I truly enjoyed this book. If we, as a species could convert the theory of this book into common practice, then we will be living in paradise.

Too scientific

The subject was interesting but it was intended for academics. However if examples of real life situations were more maybe would have been good for normal people like me.

love

this book is amazing! I learned so much and feel a deeper connection with myself and our planet. I've never been great with Physics so it did get a bit complex for a little bit. I can say that I understand more than when I began this book! I recommend this to anyone and everyone looking for a better connection with our world.

A scientific view of wellness.

This book helps explain what influences the mind and offers a scientific view of wellness. It identifies links between science and spirituality. I highly recommend.

STOP! MAKE IT STOP!

Here we have a well-meaning fellow with a passion for three things: 1) The obvious, 2) endless description as if it constitutes evidence, and 3) the thinly-stretched need to convince us that he has enveloped and super-setted everyone both since Plato and now on Audible.

I appreciate expertise. I take that means a therapist sticking to what they know. Instead we are prefaced with an architonic worthy of Kant and the constant intonation to follow him on a "journey" that offers little authentic or original to trust.

Author likes his voice

This book reminds me of somebody that found speech to text. The content in this book doesn't doesn't draw me in like his other books.
