But as Talis Bachmann and his coauthors show in this book, the fact that human consciousness is unsolved doesn't mean it is unexplored. Careful studies of conscious phenomena go back as far as Newton's color experiments and 'Aristotle's illusion.' This book presents a solid sampling of experimental phenomena that cast light on human consciousness. It is a useful, brief manual for courses focused on the empirical study of human consciousness. * Bernard J. Baars, Senior Fellow in Theoretical Neurobiology, The Neurosciences Institute *\u003cbr\u003eBachmann, Breitmeyer, and gmen have done neuroscientists, psychologists, and philosophers an enormous service. They have put together a single comprehensive dictionary of the experimental paradigms and phenomena that characterize research in consciousness. This book will not only be useful for students, but also for established investigators working in this exciting field. Philosophers, who are increasingly drawing on empirical work to bolster their ideas, will find it particularly valuable. * Melvyn A. Goodale, Canada Research Chair in Visual Neuroscience, Department of Psychology, University of Western Ontario *\u003cbr\u003eExperimental Phenomena of Consciousness offers a very compact and handy compendium of the relevant, empirically approachable aspects of consciousness. It is a handbook that every student of consciousness should own. * Christof Koch, Lois and Victor Troendle Professor of Cognitive and Behavioural Biology, California Institute of Technology *\u003cbr\u003eThis dictionary is an indispensable little guide to the wonders of conscious sensation and perception. It provides both the student and the researcher with a lucid introduction to the variety and multiplicity of conscious phenomena that, ultimately, the science of consciousness should explain. * Antti Revonsuo, Professor, University of Turku, Finland and University of Sk Vde *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSelection Criteria for Dictionary Terms ; Dictionary ; Additional Terms ; Name Index ; Subject Index","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51742124409175,"sku":"9780195393774","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780195393774.jpg?v=1758380626","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/experimental-phenomena-of-consciousness-a-brief-dictionary-revised-edition-9780195393774","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
