So if people want to get really squirly and explore consciousness as something perhaps non-loized or not limited to the brain, they can read a collection of different writings called mind beyond brain which was edited by David Prey. Now, if David Prey were just playing singing bowls and swinging copal around the public square, walking around in rags, it.

Why people recommend it

Mind Beyond Brain by David E. Presti is an edited collection of writings that examines consciousness as a phenomenon potentially not limited entirely to biological brain activity. On the podcast The Tim Ferriss Show, in the episode numbered 805 and titled Philip Goff — Exploring Consciousness and Non-Ordinary Religion, Galileo's, broadcast on April 9, 2025, host Tim Ferriss brought up this volume during a conversation on philosophy and cognitive science. Tim Ferriss recommended the book to individuals who want to get truly unorthodox and explore consciousness as something non-localized or separate from standard physicalism. He noted that the text, edited by David Presti, offers a fascinating compilation of diverse perspectives and rigorous inquiries into anomalous mental states and non-ordinary reality. By introducing the collection to his listeners, the host provided a pathway for curious minds to dive deeper into fringe scientific and philosophical investigations surrounding the true nature of human awareness, subjective experience, and the fundamental boundaries of modern neuroscience and cognitive research.
