Human consciousness has perplexed philosophers, artists and
scientists for centuries. Some hold it to be purely physical, while
others believe it transcends the material world. Now comes a book
that offers a new perspective - based entirely on evidence from the
natural sciences - whereby materialism and dualism co-exist. The
author - a distinguished pioneer of nonlinear dynamics - bases his
argument on a hierarchical view of mental organization; a stairway.
Atoms give rise to molecules, neurons form the brain and individual
consciousness leads to shared culture. All steps are needed to
complete the picture and each level derives from the previous one.
The book shows specialists how each of their fields adds to the
overall picture, while providing general readers with an
introduction to this investigation.
