Why people recommend it

Why Red Doesn't Sound Like a Bell by J. Kevin O'Regan is a philosophical and scientific exploration of sensory experience and color perception. During an appearance on the Lex Fridman Podcast in an episode titled Jeff Hawkins: Thousand Brains Theory of Intelligence, guest Jeff Hawkins discussed the book. He noted that it was the finest treatise he had ever encountered on the subject. Hawkins brought up the work by J. Kevin O'Regan to delve into the complex nature of color and sensory perception, highlighting how our brains process these phenomena. The discussion emphasized the depth and clarity with which the author approaches the mechanisms behind human sensory experiences, making it a notable reference point for anyone interested in the intersection of neuroscience, cognitive science, and human consciousness. Hawkins' endorsement draws attention to the book's unique perspective on why sensory modalities differ so fundamentally in our subjective experience of the physical world around us.
