Emotions are actions and they express to others how well or how poorly we manage our interactions with the world around us. But the experiences of emotions are also feelings, known as emotional feelings.

#FeelingAndKnowing
Feelings and emotions are often confused as if they were the same thing. But they are NOT. Feelings are subjective experiences, and the oldest of them all are experiences of our bodies as life goes on (homeostatic feelings). Feelings are the beginning of consciousness.

Reading the audio version of the book is one thing. Interpreting a text vocally is something else. I thank Julian Morris, a great young actor, for interpreting #FeelingAndKnowing. His voice takes my words directly from my new book to the listener.

Thank you for a penetrating review of #FeelingAndKnowing in @UNDARKMag. They captured perfectly the absurdity of those who want to upload their consciousness to the cloud. That would be like experiencing a meal by reading a recipe rather than eating. undark.org/2021/12/03/book-r…

I enjoyed talking with Amy Sutherland for the @BostonGlobe. She took me back to some of the things I was reading in my adolescence as well as the recent titles on my coffee table. I forgot to tell her that my new book, #FeelingAndKnowing is also there!

🧠 Antonio Damasio, uno de los neurocientíficos más reputados de nuestro tiempo, nos invita a asombrarnos ante el milagro de la inteligencia y a pensar sobre conceptos tan interesantes y enigmáticos como la mente, las emociones o el sistema nervioso.
@EdDestino @damasiousc
Damasio … “has succeeded brilliantly in narrowing the gap between body and mind”.
Thank you Jim Holt for your review in the @nytimes.

Estoy leyendo "El extraño orden de las cosas" de @damasiousc sobre la importancia de la homeóstasis y como en los humanos lleva a la formación de los sentimientos, la mente y finalmente la subjetividad y la conciencia. Damasio es interesado en la filosofía y seguro se alegrará

In “Feeling & Knowing: Making Minds Conscious,” neuroscientist @damasiousc argues that consciousness is far more than an algorithmic process. Here's a review by @EmilyCataneo:

David Galli and his students are studying my new book FEELING & KNOWING. Happy to know it helps them with their work.
