Publisher Description: There has been an explosion of work on consciousness in the last 30-40 years from philosophers, psychologists, and neurologists. Thus, there is a need for an interdisciplinary, comprehensive volume in the field that brings together contributions from a wide range of experts on fundamental and cutting-edge topics. The Routledge Handbook of Consciousness fills this need and makes each chapter's importance understandable to students and researchers from a variety of backgrounds. Designed to complement and better explain primary sources, this volume is a valuable first-stop publication for undergraduate or graduate students enrolled in any course on Consciousness, Philosophy of Mind, or Philosophy of Psychology, as well as a valuable handbook for researchers in these fields who want a useful reference to have close at hand. The 34 chapters, all published here for the first time, are divided into three parts:
Each chapter begins with a brief introduction and concludes with a list of Related Topics, as well as a list of References, making the volume indispensable for the newcomer and experienced researcher alike. |
