  Body Am I - The New Science of...

  The body is central to our sense of identity. Bodily awareness, says scientist-writer Moheb Costandi, is key to self-consciousness. In Body Am I, Costandi examines how the brain perceives the body, how that perception translates into our conscious experience of the body, and how that experience contributes to our sense of self. Along the way, he explores what can happen when the mechanisms of bodily awareness are disturbed, leading to such phenomena as phantom limbs, alien hands, and amputee fetishes. 
   
   
    
  Costandi explains that the brain generates maps and models of the body that guide how we perceive and use it, and that these maps and models are repeatedly modified and reconstructed. Drawing on recent bodily awareness research, the new science of self-consciousness, and historical milestones in neurology, he describes a range of psychiatric and neurological disorders that result when body and brain are out of sync, including not only the well-known phantom limb syndrome but also phantom breast and phantom penis syndromes; body integrity identity disorder, which compels a person to disown and then amputate a healthy arm or leg; and such eating disorders as anorexia. 
   
   
    
  Wide-ranging and meticulously researched, Body Am I offers new insight into self-consciousness by describing it in terms of bodily awareness.

  [How to Recognize Toxic Anxiety] delves into the intricate landscapes of modern anxiety with unflinching precision and intimate understanding. Through lyrical prose that echoes the quiet moments of psychological struggle, this groundbreaking exploration maps the subtle territories where anxiety infiltrates daily life. With remarkable attention to detail, the book illuminates how anxiety transforms ordinary experiences—from morning coffee rituals to midnight thoughts—into complex negotiations with fear. Drawing on rich metaphorical frameworks of weather patterns, architecture, and internal chemistry, it offers readers a revolutionary lens for understanding their own experiences of anxiety. What sets this work apart is its masterful balance of scientific insight and emotional resonance, weaving together the biological underpinnings of anxiety with the deeply personal experience of navigating its presence in contemporary life. The narrative doesn't just describe anxiety; it captures its essence in the spaces between heartbeats, in the pauses between breaths, in the moments between thoughts—making visible what has long remained unseen.
