Our book club is soon going to discuss "Being You" by Anil Seth, a British neuroscientist. I sent them this email to try to situate the book and discussion. Seth has YouTube videos and TED talks, too. The basic subject is how our minds come to be.

Many pages on these web sites relate to "Being You".
The author, Anil Seth, has TED talks and YouTube videos. Here is a Google Search page about him t.ly/iark
Two of the most helpful books for me have been "Incognito" by D. Eagleman and "Seven and a Half Lessons about Your Brain" by L. F. Barrett. Both of these books explain the many ways our biology influences.
Related books are "Unique" by D. Linden and "Search Inside Yourself" by Chade-Meng Tan. Since we started life using parts of our mothers and fathers, the book "She Has Her Mother's Laugh" by Carl Zimmer may be helpful. We are much influenced by our unfolding development and our hormones so "The Female Brain" and "The Male Brain" by Louann Brezendine, MD are eye-opening. As of today, Dr.Brizendine has released "The Upgrade", information about how women's brains improve after the age of 50.
