借出来才知道这书这么短的。对“意识”这个话题非常基础非常简约的介绍,提出了一些没有答案的问题,我觉得是启发人在这方面继续探索和思考的一类的书吧。里面提到的说法,例子,实验等,绝大部分都已经读过相关的书或文章了,所以感觉没有什么新的收获。
评分An exposition on the very difficult subject that is easy to read, written a little too informally perhaps. More depth on the covered topics might have rendered it a more satisfying study. 4.5 *.

评分又一本关于意识的书,很短,只有两个小时而已。其实很多内容和Hoffman的书有重叠,但是写得简练精确,可见作者确实是下了功夫提炼文字,我觉得大概看书会更好,因为比浮光掠影地听书更能欣赏逻辑与文字的起承转合。大概会去买一本,有时间的时候慢慢琢磨。
评分把业界大咖的结论整理了一下,这或许就是作家(非科学家)的局限。非常基础的 neuroscience,非常努力地在推 panpsychism 和冥想。如果熟悉 Sam Harris, Rob Reid, Sean Carroll 那帮科学家/公知/播主的话会觉得这本书基本什么新的东西都没讲。
Annaka Harris is an author, editor, and a consultant for science writers. She is the author of the children's book I Wonder, a collaborator on Susan Kaiser Greenland's The Mindful Games Activity Cards, and her work has appeared in the New York Times. She lives with her husband, the neuroscientist, author, and podcaster Sam Harris, and their two children.
Annaka Harris is the author of the forthcoming book, "CONSCIOUS: A Brief Guide to the Fundamental Mystery of the Mind" (HarperCollins, June 2019), author of the children’s book "I Wonder," and a collaborator on "Mindful Games," by Susan Kaiser Greenland. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times. She is a volunteer mindfulness teacher for the Inner Kids organization and is married to the neuroscientist and author Sam Harris.
As concise and enlightening as Seven Brief Lessons on Physics and Astrophysics for People in a Hurry, this mind-expanding dive into the mystery of consciousness is an illuminating meditation on the self, free will, and felt experience.
What is consciousness? How does it arise? And why does it exist? We take our experience of being in the world for granted. But the very existence of consciousness raises profound questions: Why would any collection of matter in the universe be conscious? How are we able to think about this? And why should we?
In this wonderfully accessible book, Annaka Harris guides us through the evolving definitions, philosophies, and scientific findings that probe our limited understanding of consciousness. Where does it reside, and what gives rise to it? Could it be an illusion, or a universal property of all matter? As we try to understand consciousness, we must grapple with how to define it and, in the age of artificial intelligence, who or what might possess it.
Conscious offers lively and challenging arguments that alter our ideas about consciousness--allowing us to think freely about it for ourselves, if indeed we can.
