Unlocking the Brain, Volume 2 [electronic resource] : Consciousness
Northoff, Georg.
This volume addresses consciousness by hypothesizing about the relationship between particular neuronal mechanisms and the various phenomenal features of consciousness. Northoff puts consciousness in the context of the resting state of the brain thereby delivering a new point of view to the debate that permits very interesting insights into the nature of consciousness.
