Had an interesting conversation on the science of consciousness a while back and realized there is a lot I don’t know.
Can anyone recommend a recent book that covers the overall basics, such as the different theories (like antenna/etc) and physics overlaps?
My only requirement is scientific references. I dont want or need cited peer reviewed papers, but I don’t want an author’s sole opinion, either.
Consciousness Explained by Daniel C. Dennett. A bit dense and probably a bit dated now, but I feel it’s a good introduction to the topic even if some of the conclusions he had (at that time) don’t hold up now.
