Synopsis

Consciousness is a unique scientific problem. To begin, there is no general agreement about the definition of the subject of study.

Opinions are divided about how - with which methods - it should be approached. For many decades, it was forgotten by academia, buried by the regime of behaviourism and cognitive science, but has now come to the fore again and become a relevant topic in circles working at the frontier of science.

This reissued collection of essays from 2016 introduces a new text by Dr.Christof Koch that outlines the developments in the field since the original publication and features an updated foreword by Kurt Almqvist. This is a landmark publication in the history of consciousness science, which continues to intrigue to this day.
