In Soul Dust, the psychologist Nicholas Humphrey, a leading figure in consciousness research, proposes a startling new theory. Consciousness, he argues, is nothing less than a magical-mystery show that we stage for ourselves inside our own heads. This self-made show lights up the world for us and makes us feel special and transcendent. Thus consciousness paves the way for spirituality, and allows us, as human beings, to reap the rewards, and anxieties, of living in what Humphrey calls the "soul niche.? Tightly argued, intellectually gripping, and a joy to read, Soul Dust provides answers to the deepest questions. It shows how the problem of consciousness merges with questions that obsess us all--how life should be lived and the fear of death. Resting firmly on neuroscience and evolutionary theory, and drawing a wealth of insights from philosophy and literature, Soul Dust is an uncompromising yet life-affirming work--one that never loses sight of the majesty and wonder of consciousness. 606 $aConsciousness 610 $aAldous Huxley. 610 $aAnalogy. 610 $aAnthony Marcel. 610 $aAnthropologist. 610 $aBehavior. 610 $aBuddhism. 610 $aCheating death. 610 $aChildlessness. 610 $aChimpanzee. 610 $aChristopher Isherwood. 610 $aConcept. 610 $aConsciousness. 610 $aCulture. 610 $aDaniel Dennett. 610 $aDeath anxiety (psychology). 610 $aDecision-making. 610 $aDelay differential equation. 610 $aDevelopmental psychology. 610 $aDouglas Hofstadter. 610 $aDualism (philosophy of mind). 610 $aDylan Evans. 610 $aEmergence. 610 $aEnthusiasm. 610 $aExistence. 610 $aExplanation. 610 $aFaber and Faber. 610 $aFeeling. 610 $aGeorge Santayana. 610 $aGod. 610 $aHard problem of consciousness. 610 $aHeat death of the universe. 610 $aHuman. 610 $aIllustration. 610 $aIncorruptibility. 610 $aIndication (medicine). 610 $aIndividualism. 610 $aIndividuation. 610 $aIneffability. 610 $aInstance (computer science). 610 $aInstant. 610 $aIntentionality. 610 $aJohansson. 610 $aLecture. 610 $aLiterary agent. 610 $aLudwig Wittgenstein. 610 $aMatt Ridley. 610 $aMental representation. 610 $aMescaline. 610 $aMidwife. 610 $aMortality salience. 610 $aNarrative. 610 $aNiche construction. 610 $aPenguin Books. 610 $aPerception. 610 $aPersonhood. 610 $aPessimism. 610 $aPhenomenon. 610 $aPhilosopher. 610 $aPhilosophical zombie. 610 $aPhilosophy. 610 $aPity. 610 $aPrecognition. 610 $aPrinciple. 610 $aProbability. 610 $aPsychology. 610 $aQualia. 610 $aReality. 610 $aReason. 610 $aReligion. 610 $aRequirement. 610 $aRoss Anderson. 610 $aRupert Sheldrake. 610 $aRuth Brandon. 610 $aScience. 610 $aScientist. 610 $aSelf-concept. 610 $aSelf-consciousness. 610 $aSelf-image. 610 $aSeminar. 610 $aSense. 610 $aSpecial Period. 610 $aSpirituality. 610 $aStimulation. 610 $aStrange loop. 610 $aSuffering. 610 $aSuggestion. 610 $aTermite. 610 $aTerror management theory. 610 $aThe Dog Beneath the Skin. 610 $aThe Philosopher. 610 $aThe Various. 610 $aTheory. 610 $aThomas Kuhn. 610 $aThought experiment. 610 $aThought. 610 $aUncertainty. 610 $aUniqueness. 610 $aVisual system. 610 $aW.

Para profundizar en su comprensión, el argumento de este libro de ensayos es que bien vale la pena echar un ojo retrospectivo y crítico a lo que numerosos intelectuales latinoamericanos han escrito sobre estos temas desde hace casi doscientos años. Así, es nuestra apuesta que el presente se puede enriquecer con una mirada penetrante del pasado, desde esa compleja, pero rica plataforma que nos ofrece la historia intelectual y cultural de esta vasta región. 606 $aGeschiedschrijving$2gtt 606 $aEconomische ontwikkeling$2gtt 606 $aInternationalisatie$2gtt 606 $aPluralisme (algemeen)$2gtt 606 $aNationale identiteit$2gtt 606 $aIDENTIDAD CULTURAL$zAMERICA LATINA$2renib 606 $aNational characteristics, Latin American 607 $a7$2gtt 607 $aAmerica latina$xVida intelectual$ySiglo 20$2renib 607 $aAmerica Latina$xVida intelectual$ySiglos 19-20$2renib 607 $aLatin America$xIntellectual life$y20th century 607 $aLatin America$xIntellectual life$y19th century 615 17$aGeschiedschrijving. 615 17$aEconomische ontwikkeling. 615 17$aInternationalisatie. 615 17$aPluralisme (algemeen) 615 17$aNationale identiteit. 615 7$aIDENTIDAD CULTURAL 615 0$aNational characteristics, Latin American. 676 $a980.03/1 686 $a15.85$2bcl 700 $aMarichal$b Carlos$4auth$0139661 701 $aMarichal$b Carlos$0139661 701 $aGranados Garci?a$b Aimer$f1961-$01024790 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910286449803321 996 $aConstrucción de las identidades latinoamericanas$92435870 997 $aUNINA
