"This is just electrical activity in my head" - I love that perspective, I'm writing an article 'Emotions as Data' at the moment and have Lisa Feldman Barrett's book waiting to be read to help validate the perspective I'm taking. I'm currently reading her other book, Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain which is fascinating.
Thanks for the note and book suggestion, John. Seven and a Half Lessons about the Brain sounds intriguing — adding it to my reading list. I'd love to read your article when it's out!
Yes good book. Another one I am currently reading on the same topic is "The Experience Machine" by Andy Clark
Thanks for sharing this recommendation, Gary! I've added it to my reading list.
