BS 189 Antonio Damasio, author of "Feeling and Knowing"
Brain Science with Ginger Campbell, MD: Neuroscience for Everyone
Neurologist and best-selling author Antonio Damasio is one of our most requested guests. This month we finally had the opportunity to talk about his newest book "Feeling & Knowing: Making Minds Conscious," which he explained is somewhat different from his previous efforts. His goal was to write something "briefer" and more accessible. Thus it is definitely a book that requires no background in neuroscience.
The key theme is that feelings and emotions are foundational aspects of Consciousness.
