@JosephMeyer I just took the "what are you reading" question literally and posted what I was actually reading at the time lol, definitely not light reading or a general audience recommendation. Although if someone wrote a pop sci book on the spinal cord I'm sure it'd be interesting, it does a lot more than just relay sensory information to the brain, like sensorimotor integration, and CPGs https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_pattern_generator

Will check out Kevin Mitchell, I have Elusive Cures on hold at the library lol, haven't read enough Dennett, Hofstadter's always good, and I've read a lot of Dehane's papers which are interesting
