The case studies, the notion of an idea as an egg, maladaptive schemas, and autistics misinterpreting nuance (confusing red for green) all come from Anil Ananthaswamy's The Man Who Wasn't There: Investigations into the Strange New Science of the Self. All the psychology, and some of the philosophy, from those sections are in this book. It explores the neurobiology behind the self, and how its existence depends very much on the state of our body and brain. Very on topic with Farouk looking for his body and people theorizing that David is locked in his own mind.
