<p>BS 188 features neuroscientist Anil Seth discussing his new book "Being You: A New Science of Consciousness."

His perspective is both practical and illuminating.</p> <p><strong>Links and References:</strong></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/3kAsilu" target="_blank" rel= "noopener"><em>Being You: A New Science of Consciousness</em></a> by Anil Seth</li> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/3xamhzi" target="_blank" rel= "noopener"><em>Making up the Mind: How the Brain Creates Our Mental World</em></a> by Chris Frith (<a href= "http://www.brainsciencepodcast.com/bsp/how-our-brain-creates-our-world-with-chris-frith-phd-bsp-57.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BSP 57</a>)</li> <li>See also the recent <strong><em>Brain Science</em></strong> series on Consciousness: <strong>BS 160-163</strong>.</li> <li><a href="https://www.anilseth.com" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">AnilSeth.com</a></li> <li>Please visit <a href= "http://brainsciencepodcast.com/">http://brainsciencepodcast.com</a> for additonal references and episode transcripts.</li> </ul> <p> </p> <div style="text-align: center;"><strong>Please Visit Our Sponsors:</strong></div> <ul> <li><a href= "https://textexpander.com/podcast?utm_source=brainscience&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=textexpander-September-2021" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>TextExpander at textexpander.com/podcast</strong></a></li> <li><a href="https:hellofresh.com/14ginger" target="_blank" rel= "noopener"><strong>HelloFresh at hellofresh.com/14ginger</strong></a></li> </ul> <p><br /> <strong>Announcements:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Check out the <em><strong>Brain Science</strong></em> podcast channel on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/BrainSciencePodcast" target="_blank" rel="noopener">YouTube</a> for episode excerpts and summaries.</li> <li>Support <strong><em>Brai
