MIND HACKING - VOLUME ONE

What if the mind is not where you think it is - or what you think it is?
We speak of the mind every day, yet no one has ever held one, weighed one, or pointed to where it sits. The modern verdict says it is merely the brain - a hum of chemistry, nothing more. This book reopens that verdict.

Mind Hacking, Volume One: The Reality of Mind is a patient inquiry into the question that must be answered before any talk of changing or 'hacking' the mind can begin: what is mind, and where is it? Calling its witnesses from neuroscience and biology, from philosophy and the contemplative traditions, it follows the trail through the living body - the brain, the heart, the senses, the cell, the very atoms - weighing each in the open and closing nothing before its time.

Along the way it asks: Does the mind exist beyond a mere concept, and where? Do all living beings possess mind? Is thinking an act of the brain or the heart? Do memory and learning belong to brain, heart, or mind? If precision already runs through every atom, what is the mind even for - and what gives it its power? What differs Mind and Consciousness?
Witness-driven, unhurried, and honest about what it does not yet know, this is the foundational volume of an inquiry continued in Volume Two, The Hacking of Mind. For the reader who was never satisfied with 'you are only your brain,' and who suspects the truth is larger, and nearer, than the verdict allows.
