Mind the Body is the first comprehensive treatment of bodily awareness. It explores questions such as: How do I perceive my body? What makes me feel this specific body is my own? These questions are vividly illustrated with examples of bodily illusions and puzzling bodily disorders, which lead us to question some of our most basic intuitions.

Frédérique de Vignemont is a CNRS research director at the Jean Nicod Institute in Paris. Her research is at the intersection of philosophy of mind and cognitive science. Her major current works focus on bodily awareness, self-consciousness, and social cognition. Her new project investigates the perceptual peculiarities of peripersonal space, which can be conceived of as the territory of the self. She has published widely in philosophy and psychology journals on the first-person, body schema, agency, empathy, and more recently on pain. She is the recipient of the 2015 Young Mind & Brain prize. She is also one of the executive editors of the Review of Philosophy and Psychology.
