Current theories on the mind-body problem and the neural correlates of consciousness are presented through a series of biographical sketches of the most influential thinkers across the fields of philosophy of mind, psychology, and neuroscience. The book is divided into two parts: Part 1 is dedicated to philosophers of mind, whereas Part 2 encompasses neuroscientists and experimental psychologists. Each part comprises fifteen short chapters, with each chapter being dedicated to one author. A brief introduction is given on his or her life and most important works, with explanation of influences and of the impact that the ideas contained in these works had on the communities of psychologists, neuroscientists, and philosophers of the time. The most influential theory/ies developed by each author are then explained and examined, with the aim of analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of the different approaches to the nature of consciousness. An annotated list of essential references concludes each chapter. 606 $aNeurosciences 606 $aPhilosophy of mind 606 $aBehavioral sciences 606 $aNeurosciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B18006 606 $aPhilosophy of Mind$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E31000 606 $aBehavioral Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L13009 615 0$aNeurosciences. 615 0$aPhilosophy of mind. 615 0$aBehavioral sciences. 615 14$aNeurosciences. 615 24$aPhilosophy of Mind. 615 24$aBehavioral Sciences. 676 $a128.2 676 $a591.5 676 $a610 676 $a612.8 700 $aCavanna$b Andrea Eugenio$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01060217 702 $aNani$b Andrea$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298352303321 996 $aConsciousness$92511877 997 $aUNINA
