In The Nature of Consciousness, Mark Rowlands develops an
innovative account of the nature of phenomenal consciousness, one
that has significant consequences for attempts to find a place for
it in the natural order. The most significant feature of
consciousness is its dual nature: consciousness can be both the
directing of awareness and that upon which awareness is directed.
Rowlands offers a clear and philosophically insightful discussion
of the main positions in this fast-moving debate, and argues that
the phenomenal aspects of conscious experience are aspects that
exist only in the directing of experience towards non-phenomenal
objects, a theory that undermines reductive attempts to explain
consciousness in terms of what is not conscious. His book will be
of interest to a wide range of readers in the philosophy of mind
and language, psychology and cognitive science.
