Given a non-reductive naturalist framework taking consciousness as an ontologically subjective biological phenomenon, how can we rationally explain the fact that the actual world has turned out to be one where there are presently living beings that can feel, rather than having developed as a zombie-world in which there would be no conscious experiences of any kind? This book introduces the Natural Problem by relating it to central problems in the philosophy of mind (metaphysical mind-body problem, Hard Problem of consciousness) and emphasizing the distinctive interest of its diachronic dimension. Ranging from philosophy to biology and neuroscience, it offers a thorough analysis aimed at better understanding what could explain why phenomenal consciousness has been preserved throughout evolution by natural selection. This is an original, engaging, and thought provoking philosophical study of a neglected but fundamental question regarding the nature and origin of consciousness. 606 $aConsciousness 610 $aEvolution. 610 $amental causation. 610 $amind-body problem. 610 $anatural selection. 610 $aphenomenal consciousness. 615 0$aConsciousness. 676 $a128/.2 686 $aCC 4400$qBVB$2rvk 700 $aSnider$b Pietro$01475080 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792930603321 996 $aThe natural problem of consciousness$93689076 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06154nam 22009135 450 001 9910967759103321 005 20190305131429.0 010 $a9786613613882 010 $a9781280584060 010 $a1280584068 010 $a9781137014894 010 $a113701489X 024 7 $a10.1057/9781137014894 035 $a(CKB)2670000000147399 035 $a(EBL)868385 035 $a(OCoLC)778698446 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000624007 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11389604 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000624007 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10656564 035 $a(PQKB)11266172 035 $a(DE-He213)978-1-137-01489-4 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC868385 035 $a(PPN)190557249 035 $a(Perlego)3500621 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000147399 100 $a20151028d2012 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aGhetto Images in Twentieth-Century American Literature $eWriting Apartheid /$fby Tyrone R.
