CONSCIOUS is out today!
“CONSCIOUS offers the clearest, most compelling explanation that I’ve seen of consciousness. If you’ve ever wondered how you have the capacity to wonder, some fascinating insights await you in these pages.”
ADAM GRANT, AUTHOR OF ORIGINALS AND GIVE AND TAKE
“The AI quest for artificial minds has transformed the mystery of consciousness into philosophy with a deadline. In this gem of a book, Annaka Harris tackles consciousness controversies with incisive rigor and clarity, in a style that’s accessible and captivating, yet never dumbed down.”
MAX TEGMARK, AUTHOR OF LIFE 3.0: BEING HUMAN IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
“There is a profound intellectual adventure awaiting the reader of this exquisite book.”

10% Happier Podcast Interview
Susan Kaiser Greenland and I talk with Dan Harris on his 10% Happier podcast. Our conversation is wide-ranging—from teaching meditation in schools to careerism in the secular mindfulness movement. Dan is a self-described fidgety, skeptical ABC newsman who had a panic attack live on Good Morning America, which led him to something he always thought was ridiculous: meditation.
He is author of the bestselling book 10% Happier.
