The phenomenon of consciousness has always been a central question
for philosophers and scientists. Emerging in the past decade are
new approaches to the understanding of consciousness in a
scientific light. This book presents a series of essays by leading
thinkers giving an account of the current ideas prevalent in the
scientific study of consciousness. The value of the book lies in
the discussion of this interesting though complex subject from
different points of view ranging from physics and computer science
to the cognitive sciences. Reviews of controversial ideas related
to the philosophy of mind from western and eastern sources
including classical Indian first person methodologies provide a
breadth of coverage that has seldom been attempted in a book
before. Additionally, chapters relating to the new approaches in
computational modeling of higher order cognitive function and
consciousness are included. The book is of great value for
established as well as young researchers from a wide cross-section
of interdisciplinary scientific backgrounds, aiming to pursue
research in this field, as well as an informed public.
* Presents the latest developments in the scientific study of
consciousness
* Critically reviews different theoretical and philosophical
explanations related to the subject
* An important book for both students and researchers in designing
research projects on consciousness
