Our Fictional Minds examines and challenges our most common-and seemingly common-sense-ideas about human consciousness. Drawing on developments in neuroscience, psychology, and monitoring technology, psychologist David Fisher shows how and why our usual takes on the human mind both serve us and limit us.
