How does the mind connect to the body?
Why does it feel like something to be us?
Our guest is one of the boldest thinkers in neuroscience and solving this puzzle has been a lifetime's quest.
Now at last, the pioneer who discovered the brain mechanism for dreaming
appears to have made a breakthrough.

It is a pleasure to welcome back the author of The Hidden Spring: A Journey to the Source of Consciousness, Mark Solms.
