Summary of James Fadiman & Jordan Gruber's Your Symphony of Selves

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 All humans are composed of more than one self. When things are going well, each plays its rightful role as part of a harmonious symphony. But when things aren’t going so well, we are often forced to recognize and deal with our different selves. #2 The Single Self Assumption is the belief that we are a single, unified entity. It is the belief that we are a collection of healthy, harmonious selves. However, this way of thinking is so prevalent that it seems like a barrier or veil prevents us from directly experiencing or considering the idea that we are a collection of healthy selves. #3 The Single Sel...

Moral Hazard in Health Insurance

Addressing the challenge of covering heath care expenses—while minimizing economic risks. Moral hazard—the tendency to change behavior when the cost of that behavior will be borne by others—is a particularly tricky question when considering health care. Kenneth J. Arrow’s seminal 1963 paper on this topic (included in this volume) was one of the first to explore the implication of moral hazard for health care, and Amy Finkelstein—recognized as one of the world’s foremost experts on the topic—here examines this issue in the context of contemporary American health care policy. Drawing on research from both the original RAND Health Insurance Experiment and her own research, includi...

Experiential Consciousness and the Nature of Human Identity

Consciousness is hard to bring to the laboratory as it confronts us with a classic dilemma: can a mind observe itself? However, who, then, is observing the observer? Without experiential awareness, culture, the arts, science, and philosophy would not make sense. Would it make sense if refrigerators were to produce a “refrigerator culture” without the experience of freezing food? Virtually all human culture is destined to provide conscious experiences. This volume provides a rich array of views on human nature and the way it shows up in the strange land of human identity.

An engaging and insightful journey into human consciousness. What if our goal had not been to land on Mars, but in pure consciousness? The experience of pure consciousness—what does it look like? What is the essence of human consciousness? In The Elephant and the Blind, influential philosopher Thomas Metzinger, one of the world's leading researchers on consciousness, brings together more than 500 experiential reports to offer the world's first comprehensive account of states of pure consciousness. Drawing on a large psychometric study of meditators in 57 countries, Metzinger focuses on “pure awareness” in meditation—the simplest form of experience there is—to illuminate the most fu...
