Publisher Description: This book takes consciousness, disassembles it into some of its recognised components and looks at how awareness changes in a simple, fourteen stage scenario of a common situation. The book uses as a comparison system, brain memory and examines the conscious experience, functions and possible physiology and discusses topics such as subjectivity and free will which link consciousness to the companion topic of brain memory. This book is well worth a read - not just to see the development of our ideas on consciousness, but also how one simple scenario can be from a cognitive perspective so intricate. |
