Abstract: In this book, Anil Seth advocates a predictive processing approach to the understanding of conscious experience, which he claims would amount to something like a Copernican revolution. In three separate parts of the book, Seth discusses conscious level, conscious content, and conscious self. Among the strengths of the book is an ambition to stay close to the rich phenomenology of conscious experiences. The phenomenological openness, however, is counteracted by an ambition to reduce all aspects of consciousness to predictive processing.
