Why do we have bodies? We lug over a hundred pounds of meat and water with us everywhere we go. Wouldn't life be easier, more elegant, without that? It's the mystery of the mind and the body.
Our minds are connected to our bodies and therefore to the world, but how? If you dissect a brain, you see only gray and white tissue. You find no words, songs, pictures, memories, or colors. Where did the mind go? There must be a connection.
If you've wondered why your body doesn't always do what you'd like, or why you have this thought rather than that thought, you'll enjoy being made dizzy by the ideas in this book. A radical re-think of the connection between mind and body leads to some insights about how the mind affects the body and the reverse. It suggests new approaches to learning, medicine, body-image, sex, evolution, and death. It recasts intuition, thinking, feeling, empathy, belief and culture.
Mind, Body, World connects the structure of the mind to experience of the body, and once you have physical feet on the ground, you're in the world.
