Andy Clark: Supersizing the Mind

Thinking about where the feeling of consciousness really resides

I’ve arrived at a new destination while reading Andy Clark’s book on extended cognition. My ideas about the real nature of the abstract world now make more sense in a neurobiological sense. The mid is more than embodied in the brain, it is embedded in it’s physical and abstract context.

I'm an MD, PhD Neurologist who left a successful academic career on the Faculty of The Johns Hopkins Medical School to develop new treatments in Biotech and Pharma. I became fascinated with how people actually make decisions based on the science of decision theory and emerging understanding of how the brain works to make decisions. My passion now is this deep explanation of what has been the realm of philosophy, psychology and self help but is now understood as brain function. By understanding our brains, I believe we can become happier, more successful people.
