Michael Pollan: Your guide to consciousness

We often say that something has “a mind of its own,” but exactly is the consciousness we’re referring to? Michael Pollan, author and both a Guggenheim and Radcliffe Fellow, joins host Krys Boyd to explore what we know about the mysteries of the conscious mind, the evolution of awareness, and ponder if A.I. could ever really know its deepest self. His book is “A World Appears: A Journey into Consciousness.”   Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
