"Farà piacere a chiunque sia interessato al pensiero originale sul cervello... Straordinariamente originale" Financial Times L'indagine pionieristica di una domanda che ci ha confusi per secoli: come si crea la coscienza? In Self Comes to Mind, il neuroscienziato di fama mondiale Antonio Damasio va contro l'idea di lunga data che la coscienza sia separata dal corpo, presentando nuove e convincenti prove scientifiche che la coscienza, ciò che pensiamo come una mente con un sé, è in realtà un processo biologico creato da un organismo vivente. La sua visione comporta un cambiamento radicale nel modo in cui la storia della mente cosciente è vista e raccontata, suggerendo che lo sviluppo del sé umano nel cervello è una sfida all'indifferenza della natura. Idee rivoluzionarie e splendidamente scritte, questa è una lettura essenziale per chiunque sia curioso delle fondamenta della mente e del sé.
