Allen Lane A World Appears

Product description

Isbn: 9780241509470 Author: michael pollan Publisher: allen lane Language: english Volume: paperback Özet : 'big, generous, illuminating and beautifully written' john banville, financial times from the best-selling author of how to change your mind, a pioneering search for consciousness in the brain and beyond a world appears is the story of the quest to solve the greatest mystery in nature: consciousness.

how does it feel to be you with your own personal feelings, thoughts and experiences? Her ne kadar her birimiz bilinçle yakından tanışsak da, kimse bilmiyor ki üç kiloluk gri madde nasıl ya da neden bir öznel bakış açısı yaratabildi. The early 1990s marked the birth of a new science of consciousness, based on the assumption that the phenomenon could be explained in terms of brain activity, but that effort is faltering, and wilder ideas, such as panpsychism, are now getting a hearing.

indeed, there is now reason to doubt that 'objective science' as we have known it since galileo has the right tools to probe first-person experience.

A world appears takes michael pollan from the laboratories where scientists are searching for the neural correlates of consciousness to encounters with philosophers and novelists and buddhist monks, whom he finds have just as much to teach us about consciousness, if not more. A story that begins in a brain lab in seattle ends, of all places, in a cave in the mountains of new mexico, where the author discovers that explaining consciousness may be less urgent than learning to practice it in our everyday lives.
