Book Description
Written in a provocative, witty, and highly accessible style, this is not only a splendid general introduction to the central questions of consciousness and brain science, but also an answer to some of them. The author -- noted Glaswegian chemist A.G. Cairns-Smith -- believes our feelings and sensations are not simply alternative descriptions of neural events but have themselves evolved and have physical effects in the brain as well as physical causes. Secrets of the Mind portrays a vision of the world as it may come to be seen by a future science. Sand, sea water, air, and the atoms from which such materials are made are now well understood by science, but the same can not be said of our personal feelings, our sensations and emotions. Science tells us that these too must be forms of quantum energy if they evolved, yet is only now beginning to explain how.

THE SECRETS OF HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS

ISBN: 9348104330

Pages : 115
Book Description
We are on the edge of an impending Spiritual – Scientific revolution. This is unlike any other revolution, scientific discovery or an invention in the past. Every revolution, discovery or invention has brought about a shift in the consciousness of humanity. Consciousness is the basis of existence and awareness of existence. This book is an endeavour to unravel the mysteries of human consciousness, a challenging subject and an intersecting point to both science and spirituality. There have always been certain aspects of life and existence that have time and again ignited the human imagination. Even while we believe that we have reached the ultimate, we only come to realize that this could just be the curiosity and that truth lies well beyond the horizon. Nothing can come closer to explain this than the following words of T.S. Eliot “We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we began and to know the place for the first time…” Amongst many of the open questions in science today, ones that sit right at the top are bewildering the researchers a long time now: Where and how the Human Consciousness originates? Does matter have any Consciousness? Are we coincidentally into existence in this Universe, or is there a steering higher Consciousness? Those armed with scientific materialism would immediately brush aside these questions as either philosophical or something irrelevant for science to answer. They might say that science has employed all its alternatives to these non-physical phenomena and proved them to be non-existing. Since the French philosopher Rene Descartes isolated Science from Spirituality almost four centuries back, it has become a fad to put Spirituality at odds with Science. It has done no good to the scientific community. It has restricted the observation and exploration of science to merely physical matter, something which they themselves consider now as less than five percent of the universe. Note: Instead of the term ‘Religion’ we have invariably used ‘Spirituality’ which is non-affiliated, subtle, broader and with inside-out approach. In the last many centuries, we have looked up only to Material science for development, expansion, mitigation of our problems, and meeting our needs. We have also got solutions to a large extent. However, material science now either seems to be exhausting itself, or it comes with its challenges and even evil. It's time now to shift our paradigm, look inwards and seek the answers from our inner space. It will only help to complement and fill the gaps left by material science. The wisdom of the eastern world has always captivated the attention of scientists, thinkers and philosophers from around the world. It is not just the religious belief; it is a perfect blend of Science and Spirituality - interestingly cited as the Science of Spirituality and the Spirituality of Science. Decoding Human Consciousness is not just a window where science can sneak peek into Spirituality. It is a gateway for humanity to a new dimension where we can evolve from within and seek answers on questions related to our existence and well-being. Interestingly the Conscient entity could not be proved through scientific methods in a laboratory set up. Hence, it is still more challenging to scientifically verify the consciousness originating from this entity. Until one goes beyond the identity of oneself as a physical phenomenon and experiences self as a conscient being, it would be too arduous to use all the scientific apparatus to analyse the continuous stream of consciousness emanating therefrom. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack, that too non – physical !! This book is dedicated to unravelling the mysteries of Human Consciousness on Scientific, Psychological and Spiritual realms. Most of the work has come through insights from transcendental experiences that have been further corroborated by research and practice. We have taken into consideration many books, periodicals and research papers. References have been given wherever necessary. Some of the notes taken here are a verbatim copy of the lines from the work of authors while some have been rearticulated. This book is an attempt to recollect, reconnect and re-establish the scientific theories, philosophical postulations in all eras and the ancient wisdom of different scriptures spread across the world, and converge them to unravel the mysteries of consciousness. Much of the mystifying insights with divine wisdom have come from different etheric mediums and divine channels, which has been further substantiated with ancient esoteric knowledge from different origins. The present book is a concise effort to study and establish the knowledge of Consciousness, one of the most sought after mystery. The objective is to make this knowledge as a new gateway for Science to accept and discover hitherto undiscovered metaphysical realms - Spiritual awakening in a scientific way and find solutions to holistic well-being for people from all walks of life. This book is truly an amateur endeavour to reach out to the readers in a rather plain and straightforward style. We leave it to the wisdom of our readers to assess by their own experience. Any questions and suggestions are graciously invited. Magic Diamond of Group

The Secrets of Consciousness
Author: Scientific American Editors
Publisher: Scientific American
ISBN: 1466842598
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
The Secrets of Consciousness by the Editors of Scientific American Consciousness is an enigmatic beast. It's more than mere awareness – it's how we experience the world, how our subjective experience relates to the objective universe around us. And therein lies the rub, in that tiny little word "how." These kinds of questions were once the province of philosophy, religion or perhaps fantasy, but within the last few decades, neuroscientists have added a scientific voice to the discussion, using available medical technology to explore just what separates so-called "mind" from brain. How do the neural and chemical workings of our brains create our minds, our total experience of the world, our thoughts and feelings, and that sense of self that distinguishes the individual from everyone else? In this eBook, The Secrets of Consciousness, we look at what science has to say about one of humankind's most fundamental, existential mysteries. We begin at the beginning, as they say, with Section 1 on the very nature of consciousness and move on to discuss theories of neural development. In one article, author David Chalmers calls this the "hard problem," requiring an entirely new theory that places consciousness itself as a fundamental component akin to the forces of physics. In another, leading neuroscientists Christof Koch and Susan Greenfield debate exactly how the neurons and circuits in the brain create conscious awareness. Later sections go deeper into the rabbit hole and examine what we can learn from altered states such as hypnosis or anesthesia as well as the use of formerly blacklisted hallucinogens such as LSD as healing drugs. Gary Stix discusses one study on the possible therapeutic effects of LSD on the intense anxiety experienced by patients with life-threatening disease, such as cancer. Finally, Section 6 explores "The Enigma of Spirituality." David Biello takes on the search in his article, "God in the Brain," highlighting studies searching for specific neurological centers of spirituality. It's been said before, but the brain is the final frontier. Just how that brain creates not only awareness, but also integrates that awareness into creating experiences, memories, and an enduring sense of self—well, it might take overhauling not only how we study ourselves, but how we define our reality in the process of looking.

Beyond the Conscious Mind
Author: Thomas R. Blakeslee
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1489945334
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
The Nobel Prize-winning work of Roger Sperry revolutionized our understanding of human consciousness by proving that separate thinking and knowledge could exist in the left and right halves of the brain. Now, popular science writer Thomas Blakeslee - author of the highly acclaimed The Right Brain - takes us to a new level of understanding based on the theory of neural Darwinism by Gerald Edelman, another Nobel Prize winner. Blakeslee explains that our neurons spontaneously organize into hundreds of groups called modules that compete to respond to every situation in our lives - from reading this paragraph to falling in love. A vast preponderance of this activity operates outside of our conscious awareness.

The Hidden Spring: A Journey to the Source of Consciousness
Author: Mark Solms
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393542025
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 376
Book Description
A revelatory new theory of consciousness that returns emotions to the center of mental life. For Mark Solms, one of the boldest thinkers in contemporary neuroscience, discovering how consciousness comes about has been a lifetime’s quest. Scientists consider it the "hard problem" because it seems an impossible task to understand why we feel a subjective sense of self and how it arises in the brain. Venturing into the elementary physics of life, Solms has now arrived at an astonishing answer. In The Hidden Spring, he brings forward his discovery in accessible language and graspable analogies. Solms is a frank and fearless guide on an extraordinary voyage from the dawn of neuropsychology and psychoanalysis to the cutting edge of contemporary neuroscience, adhering to the medically provable. But he goes beyond other neuroscientists by paying close attention to the subjective experiences of hundreds of neurological patients, many of whom he treated, whose uncanny conversations expose much about the brain’s obscure reaches. Most importantly, you will be able to recognize the workings of your own mind for what they really are, including every stray thought, pulse of emotion, and shift of attention. The Hidden Spring will profoundly alter your understanding of your own subjective experience.

ISBN: 0316439487
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 707
Book Description
Daniel Dennett's "brilliant" exploration of human consciousness — named one of the ten best books of the year by the New York Times — is a masterpiece beloved by both scientific experts and general readers (New York Times Book Review). Consciousness Explained is a full-scale exploration of human consciousness. In this landmark book, Daniel Dennett refutes the traditional, commonsense theory of consciousness and presents a new model, based on a wealth of information from the fields of neuroscience, psychology, and artificial intelligence. Our current theories about conscious life — of people, animal, even robots — are transformed by the new perspectives found in this book. "Dennett is a witty and gifted scientific raconteur, and the book is full of fascinating information about humans, animals, and machines. The result is highly digestible and a useful tour of the field." —Wall Street Journal

Human and Machine Consciousness
Author: David Gamez
Publisher: Open Book Publishers
ISBN: 1783743018
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Consciousness is widely perceived as one of the most fundamental, interesting and difficult problems of our time. However, we still know next to nothing about the relationship between consciousness and the brain and we can only speculate about the consciousness of animals and machines. Human and Machine Consciousness presents a new foundation for the scientific study of consciousness. It sets out a bold interpretation of consciousness that neutralizes the philosophical problems and explains how we can make scientific predictions about the consciousness of animals, brain-damaged patients and machines. Gamez interprets the scientific study of consciousness as a search for mathematical theories that map between measurements of consciousness and measurements of the physical world. We can use artificial intelligence to discover these theories and they could make accurate predictions about the consciousness of humans, animals and artificial systems. Human and Machine Consciousness also provides original insights into unusual conscious experiences, such as hallucinations, religious experiences and out-of-body states, and demonstrates how ‘designer’ states of consciousness could be created in the future. Gamez explains difficult concepts in a clear way that closely engages with scientific research. His punchy, concise prose is packed with vivid examples, making it suitable for the educated general reader as well as philosophers and scientists. Problems are brought to life in colourful illustrations and a helpful summary is given at the end of each chapter. The endnotes provide detailed discussions of individual points and full references to the scientific and philosophical literature.

The Human World in the Physical Universe
Author: Nicholas Maxwell
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9780742512269
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
How is it possible for the world as we experience it to exist embedded in the physical universe? How can there be sensory qualities, consciousness, freedom, science and art, friendship, love, justice--all that which gives meaning and value to life--if the world really is more or less as modern science tells us it is? This is the problem that is tackled by this book. The solution proposed is that physics describes only a selected aspect of all that exists--that aspect which determines the way events unfold. Sensory qualities, inner experiences, consciousness, meaning and value, all these exist but lie beyond the scope of physics, and of that part of science that can be reduced to physics. Furthermore, these human features of the world are to be explained and understood, not scientifically, but "personalistically," a kind of understanding distinct from, and not reducible to, science. This view that the world is riddled with what may be called "double comprehensibility" leads to a proposed solution to the philosophical mind/body problem, and to the problem of free will; it leads to a reinterpretation of Darwin's theory of evolution, and to an account of the evolution of consciousness and free will. After a discussion of the location of consciousness in the brain, the book concludes with a proposal as to how academic inquiry might be changed so that it becomes a kind of inquiry rationally designed to help humanity create a more civilized human world in the physical universe.
