Raymond Tallis's The Explicit Animal (1991) was a passionate attack
on attempts to explain human consciousness in purely biological
terms. This ground-breaking book defended the distinctive nature of
human consciousness against the misrepresentations of those many
philosophers and cognitive scientists who aimed to reduce it to a
set of functions understood in evolutionary, neurobiological and
computational terms. In his laudatory review in The Times Literary
Supplement, Stephen Clark expressed the hope that Tallis would
continue his explorations. On the Edge of Certainty does precisely
that, investigating and clarifying the implications of the highly
original view of human nature discussed in his earlier book, in
order to understand the nature of truth, of language, of the mind
and of the self.
