Consciousness in Philosophy and Cognitive Neuroscience (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Revonsuo, Antti; Kamppinen, Matti

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book demonstrates the dialogue between philosophical and empirical points of view. The writers present alternative solutions to the brain-consciousness problem and they discuss how the unification of biological and psychological sciences could thus become feasible. Covering a large ground, this book shows how the philosophical and empirical problems are closely interconnected. From this interdisciplinary exploration emerges the conviction that consciousness can and should be a natural part of our scientific world view.
