520    Focusing attention can help an animal find food or flee a 
       predator. It also may have led to consciousness. Tracing 
       evolution over millions of years, Michael S. A. Graziano 
       uses examples from the natural world to show how neurons 
       first allowed animals to develop simple forms of attention
       : taking in messages from the environment, prioritizing 
       them, and responding as necessary.  Then some animals 
       evolved covert attention-a roving mental focus that can 
       take in information apart from where the senses are 
       pointed, like hearing sirens at a distance or recalling a 
       memory.  Graziano proposes that in order to monitor and 
       control this specialized attention, the brain evolved a 
       simplified model of it-a cartoonish self-description 
       depicting an internal essence with a capacity for 
       knowledge and experience. In other words, consciousness.  
       In this eye-opening work, Graziano accessibly explores how
       this sense of an inner being led to empathy and formed us 
       into social beings. The theory may point the way to 
       engineers for building consciousness artificially. 
       Graziano discusses what a future with artificial 
       consciousness might be like, including both advantages and
       risks, and what AI might mean for our evolutionary future.
