About the book
A deep investigation into how emotions, feelings, and homeostasis form the basis of consciousness and human behavior. António Damásio offers a synthesis of his decades of research in neuroscience, arguing that the conscious mind is inseparable from the biological body.
The book reexamines fundamental questions about the origin of consciousness, the nature of the self, and how the underlying biological order allows for the emergence of cultures, values, and meanings that define our humanity.
