Reviews
"Kingsland does a wonderful job of succinctly conveying complex theories." -- Philosophy Now "James Kingsland leads us through the wonderful world of modern consciousness science. This book is many splendored--read it so you can take part in one of the greatest intellectual adventures of all time." --Professor J. Allan Hobson, MD, Professor of Psychiatry, Emeritus, Harvard Medical School "A fascinating, eye-opening insight into how an alteration of consciousness can reboot our brains and improve our mental health and wellbeing. I highly recommend it." --Amanda Feilding, director of the Beckley Foundation "Compelling and authoritative . . . Read this book." --Dr Ben Sessa, Senior Research Fellow at Imperial College and Consultant Psychiatrist "Rigorously researched, elegantly crafted, and personally inspired, this is a wonderful contribution to the burgeoning field of neurophenomenology, where science meets spirit. Every page delivers an insight., Andrew Holecek, Author of The Power and the Pain "Kingsland's book is a cursory but fascinating exploration of the neuroscience behind meditation, and he offers a wonderful starting point for further research and practice." -- Publishers Weekly on Siddhartha's Brain "A pleasure to read . . . This is a smart, accessible balance of philosophical teachings and brain science and how meditation can relate to everything from addiction to Alzheimer's disease." -- Washington Times on Siddharta's Brain "Fascinating . . . Whether you're a sceptic or a true believer, exploring Siddhartha's brain offers compelling insights and invites further questions about the potential of the human mind." -- Chicago Tribune on Siddharta's Brain "Brain science and Buddhist lore combine in this compelling treatise on the benefits of meditation and mindfulness." -- Kirkus Reviews on Siddharta's Brain "Reveals not only how mindfulness meditation can rewire the human brain and help us achieve a sense of spiritual fulfilment but also how we can easily integrate the practice into our daily lives." -- Scientific American on Siddharta's Brain

Synopsis
A scientific travel guide to altered states of consciousness - and what we can learn from them When a computer goes wrong, we are told to turn it off and on again. In Am I Dreaming? , science journalist James Kingsland reveals how the human brain is remarkably similar. By rebooting our hard-wired patterns of thinking - through so-called 'altered states of consciousness' - we can gain new perspectives into ourselves and the world around us. From shamans in Peru to tech workers in Silicon Valley, Kingsland provides a fascinating tour through lucid dreams, mindfulness, hypnotic trances, virtual reality and drug-induced hallucinations. An eye-opening insight into perception and consciousness, this is also a provocative argument for how altered states can significantly boost our mental health.
