Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book develops an original philosophy for the science of animal consciousness. It advocates a Darwinian bottom-up approach that treats consciousness as a complex, evolved phenomenon in nature, rather than a mysterious all-or-nothing property immune to the tools of science and restricted to a single species.
