This book aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of the interplay between the bodily self, emotion, and subjective time perception, consciousness, as well as clinical implications with a primary focus on the groundbreaking work of A.D. (Bud) Craig. By delving into Craig's contributions to interoception and his insights into the sense of a time within the context of the bodily self, this volume offers an in-depth understanding of the neural and psychological mechanisms underlying these phenomena. This book seeks to bring together leading experts from various disciplines such as neurophysiology, medicine, cognitive neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy, who explore in their chapters specific aspects of (1) interoception, (2) emotions, (3) time perception, (4) consciousness, (5) mental health, and their intersections. The result is an invaluable resource for researchers, clinicians, and scholars interested in the embodiment of behavior and experience.
