Neurowaves demonstrates how the brain’s inner time and its dynamics produce the mind and mental features like thoughts and feelings. Northoff proposes that the world is structured by waves of time, and the passing of these waves through our brains – neurowaves – is the basis of our mental experiences of the world.
