What is consciousness? Is the “self” a real entity, or just a story our brain tells itself? In Consciousness Explained (1991), philosopher Daniel Dennett challenges the traditional idea of a central “theater of the mind” and presents his groundbreaking Multiple Drafts Model.This book summary explores: • Why there is no single “center” of consciousness • How language shapes our inner world • Dennett’s idea of the self as a “center of narrative gravity” • The role of heterophenomenology in studying subjective experience • What his theory means for free will and personal identityDennett argues that consciousness is not a mysterious essence, but a process of constant editing and narration. It’s unsettling, thought-provoking, and deeply inspiring.👉 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to LeanReads for more insightful book breakdowns!Read book summary: https://leanreads.com/uf2wWatch Video: https://youtu.be/oHR4bnMT7R4📖 Want to read the full book?
