What is it that turns neural signals into a sunrise, a song, or the feeling of being you? For centuries, consciousness has been humanity's most intimate mystery-something so familiar we live inside it, yet so elusive that no single explanation has prevailed.

From the strange twilight of anesthesia and dreams to the bold frontiers of artificial intelligence, this book explores the science of experience with clarity and depth. Along the way, it reveals how researchers are piecing together the puzzle-through neural signatures, predictive processing, global workspaces, integrated information, and more-and why each approach matters for medicine, ethics, and our daily lives.
Both rigorous and deeply human, The Measure of Mind shows that unraveling consciousness does not diminish its wonder. Instead, it equips us with new ways of seeing pain, awe, music, and love-not as mysteries lost to science, but as experiences newly illuminated by it.
