Exploring the nature of consciousness, the book argues that it is fundamentally a form of computation, linking our awareness to even the simplest organisms like bacteria. It delves into how consciousness can emerge in artificial beings and examines the metaphor of the self as a cocoon that disguises its true nature. Additionally, it addresses the societal and historical constraints that limit our awareness, urging readers to cultivate critical consciousness for collective action and survival. This thought-provoking work appeals to anyone interested in understanding human experience and societal dynamics.
