Inhaltsangabe

A groundbreaking exploration of what it means to feel alive.

In this landmark work, neuroscientist Antonio Damasio reveals how consciousness arises from the body’s constant conversation with the mind. Drawing on decades of clinical research and vivid case studies, he argues that emotion is not the enemy of reason but its foundation - the mechanism through which we become aware of ourselves.

The Feeling of What Happens unites neuroscience, philosophy and psychology to explain how the brain turns sensation into self. Written with clarity and lyricism, it remains one of the most influential books ever published on the science of mind, emotion and identity.
