How does a set of action potentials (nerve impulses) become like the feeling of pain in one’s experience? Contemporary neuroscience is teaching us that our mental states correlate with neural processes in the brain. However, although we know that experience arises from a physical basis, we do not have a good explanation of why and how it so arises. The problem of how physical processes give rise to experience is called the “hard problem” of consciousness and it is the contemporary manifestation of the mind–body problem. This book explains the key concepts that surround the issue as well as the nature of the hard problem and the several approaches to it. It gives a comprehensive treatment of the phenomenon incorporating its main metaphysical and epistemic aspects, as well as recent empirical findings, such as the phenomena of blindsight, change blindness, visual-form agnosia and optic ataraxia, mirror recognition in other primates, split-brain cases and synaesthesia. 606 $aConsciousness 606 $aPhenomenology 606 $aPhilosophy of mind 615 0$aConsciousness. 615 0$aPhenomenology. 615 0$aPhilosophy of mind. 676 $a128.2 700 $aPlatchias$b Dimitris$0907357 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966693303321 996 $aPhenomenal consciousness$94496144 997 $aUNINA
