The central aim is to identify common neural denominators of conscious awareness, informed by the neurochemistry of natural, drug induced and pathological states of consciousness. Chemicals such as acetylcholine and dopamine, which bridge the synaptic gap between neurones, are the 'neurotransmitters in mind' that form the substance of the volume, which is essential reading for all who believe that unravelling mechanisms of consciousness must include these vital systems of the brain.Up-to-date informatiAdvances in consciousness research ;v. 36.ConsciousnessNeurobehavioral disordersNeurochemistryNeurotransmittersElectronic books.Consciousness.Neurobehavioral disorders.Neurochemistry.Neurotransmitters.153Ashton Heather869628Perry E.
