Georg Northoff is a philosopher, neuroscientist and psychiatrist, holding degrees in all three disciplines. He works in Ottawa/Canada holding a Canada Research Chair for Mind, Brain Imaging, and Neuroethics. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. His research focuses on the relationship between brain and mind. The question driving him is: “why and how can our brain construct mental features like self, consciousness, etc.” To address the brain-mind relationship he developed his novel and unique Spatiotemporal Neuroscience and Psychopathology where time-space are shared by brain and mind. He is also one of the leading figures in linking philosophy, psychiatry, and neuroscience having developed non-reductive neurophilosophy and the world-brain relation as answer to the mind-body problem. He authored over 400 journal articles and 20 books which are translated into several languages including “Neuro-philosophy and the Healthy Mind” (2016) Norton Publisher, and “Neurowaves” (McGill”).

He was a rack and field athlete, focusing an pole vaulting and decathlon having several champion in his province of Northern Germany as well as in German National competitions. Since then he is an avid athlete having switched to long distance running and performing in several marathons.

In addition to the physical joy of running, he also detected the meditative character of it in the beautiful landscape in Canada, where he resides, and in other parts of the world. This is the basis of his contribution in this book.
