A World Appears, Michael Polan

 

A World Appears:  A journey into consciousness by Michael Pollan

Started: May 1, 2026
Completed: May 6, 2026
Recommendation: Highly recommended
Recommended By: Cannot remember
Media: Audio

Words for which I sought help:

lacuna -- An empty space or a missing part; a gap

Review:

This book started by quoting Anil Seth's Being You which I have been struggling to read for a couple of years now.  Despite that daunting start, the book was highly readable and covered a lot of ground.  While I am not usually swayed by a personal journey, in this particular case it created a framework which allowed Pollan to go from concept to concept cleanly.  Well worth the time.
