This book presents a novel and comprehensive theory of
consciousness. The initial chapter distinguishes six main forms of
consciousness and sketches an account of each one. Later chapters
focus on phenomenal consciousness, consciousness of, and
introspective consciousness. In discussing phenomenal
consciousness, Hill develops the representational theory of mind in
new directions, arguing that all awareness involves
representations, even awareness of qualitative states like pain. He
then uses this view to undercut dualistic accounts of qualitative
states. Other topics include visual awareness, visual appearances,
emotional qualia, and meta-cognitive processing. This important
work will interest a wide readership of students and scholars in
philosophy of mind and cognitive science.
