Cellular Mind: Your Cells Create Your Mind (Not Your Brain)
M. Rowen, author

Adult; Science, Nature, Technology; (Publish)

Centuries of scientific research has failed to find evidence that the human mind is generated by brain processes. No scientific theory has ever been developed that explains, even in principle, how brain processes can generate the vibrant conscious experiences that we all take for granted, a mystery known as the "hard problem of consciousness". This book will review astonishing evidence from experiments in cutting edge biology and neuroscience that suggest that your mind is not generated by your brain processes, but instead by cells throughout your body. Each of the 37 trillion cells in your body is an intelligent living organism that has a rudimentary mind that experiences its world inside your body, and these cellular minds collectively combine to form your incredibly complex human mind. It has been a known scientific fact for over 350 years that cells are the building blocks of life, and now the scientific evidence is suggesting that cells are also the building blocks of mind. You are your cells and your cells are you, literally and at the deepest levels of your mind and body. The view that cells are the building blocks of mind was first proposed by biologist Lynn Margulis in 1967 when she suggested that three independent microorganisms that had rudimentary minds began to live together symbiotically inside a common cellular membrane, evolving into the more complex eukaryotic cell with a more complex cellular mind. Eukaryotic cells are the building blocks of every known form of complex multicellular life on earth, from plants to insects to humans. While modern science has fully accepted Margulis' theory on the evolution of eukaryotic cells from the symbiotic merger of primitive bacteria and archaea cell bodies, the scientific community continues to reject her suggestion that bacteria and archaea cells have minds that also merged to create a more complex mind in eukaryotic cells. Viewing cells as the building blocks of both life and mind explains a wide range of biological, neuroscientific, and evolutionary anomalies and evidence that mainstream scientific theories struggle to explain. It explains normal everyday phenomena that has defied scientific explanation for centuries such as how we experience pain and how the body heals itself. It explains mysterious phenomena such as the placebo effect, people living normal lives despite being born without most of their brain, unusual mental skills between conjoined twins, and even near-death experiences. It also provides straightforward explanations of neuroscientific enigmas such as Libet and split-brain experiments. It also provides natural solutions to longstanding problems in philosophy of mind such as the combination problem, the binding problem, and the unity of conscious experience. If you are open to alternative theories of mind that better fit with the evidence gathered by modern science, then this book will open your eyes to a new way to view your mind. Your cells create your mind, not your brain.
