I just finished reading Self Comes to Mind by Antonio Damasio.

It wasn't an easy read......not for me.

 It took quite a while to read it cover to cover but....... It was well worth the time and attention I gave to it.

Antonio gives a very detailed account of how our sense of self arises out of our brain. 

He gives an anatomical basis for the illusion we call I.

It is a very fascinating read.  I found  another new way of looking at myself.

 With each book I read my understanding evolves another step.

I liked the Appendix. It gives an excellent description of brain architecture and  how it works.
