Описание:
New Directions in Consciousness Studies describes a range of fresh ideas which promise to significantly advance scientific understanding of human nature. Written in non-specialized language, the book draws upon concepts and research from history, philosophy, neuroscience and physics to delineate new approaches to the study of consciousness.
Early chapters deal with a range of ideas about our nature, and suggest that mind can usefully be viewed as a type of dynamic landscape. The account shows how our minds relate to their societies, brains and bodies and how they differ from computers. Later chapters develop a theory of the basis of consciousness (SoS theory). Using the physical concept of 'broken symmetry' the author shows how conscious mind may be rooted in temporality; a view that is supported by the occurrence of a wide range of anomalous phenomena. Potentially valuable future lines of research are identified.
This is a unique and engaging book that will appeal to students and academics in the field of consciousness studies and other readers with an interest in consciousness.

Описание: Consciousness seems to be an enigmatic phenomenon: it is difficult to imagine how our perceptions of the world and our inner thoughts, sensations and feelings could be related to the immensely complicated biological organ we call the brain. This volume presents the thoughts of some of the leading philosophers and cognitive scientists who have recently participated in the discussion of the status of consciousness in science. The focus of inquiry is the question: "Is it possible to incorporate consciousness into science?" Philosophers have suggested different alternatives -- some think that consciousness should be altogether eliminated from science because it is not a real phenomenon, others that consciousness is a real, higher-level physical or neurobiological phenomenon, and still others that consciousness is fundamentally mysterious and beyond the reach of science. At the same time, however, several models or theories of the role of conscious processing in the brain have been developed in the more empirical cognitive sciences. It has been suggested that non-conscious processes must be sharply separated from conscious ones, and that the necessity of this distinction is manifested in the curious behavior of certain brain-damaged patients. This book demonstrates the dialogue between philosophical and empirical points of view. The writers present alternative solutions to the brain-consciousness problem and they discuss how the unification of biological and psychological sciences could thus become feasible. Covering a large ground, this book shows how the philosophical and empirical problems are closely interconnected. From this interdisciplinary exploration emerges the conviction that consciousness can and should be a natural part of our scientific world view.

Описание: The pagan mythology of the Vikings offers a rich metaphor for consciousness. This book presents the cosmography of Norse mythology as a landscape of human inner life. Each of the nine worlds of this cosmography is viewed as a symbol of a distinct type of consciousness, emblematic of a particular perspective or way of relating to others. Individual gods and goddesses are considered as nuanced personifications of their worlds. The philosophy of pagan mythology is explored by comparing and contrasting the Sayings of Odin from the Norse Edda with the Christian Ten Commandments.

Описание: In The Healthy Mind, Dr. Henry M. Vyner presents the findings of twenty-seven years of research spent interviewing Tibetan lamas about their experiences of the mind.
Awareness: The most profound, intimate and collective experience human beings share turns out to be an absolute mystery. As universal a state as consciousness is to every person, it currently carries no agreed upon definition beyond its observable characteristics.
The 5thPhenomenon
Presents consciousness as a legitimate phenomenon for academics.
Details the art of depth consciousness for individual exploration.
Reveals a vision for a shift in mass consciousness that leads to spontaneous world community.
Robert A. Revel cuts through religious and academic dogma to posit something he senses is profoundly obvious; that consciousness is its own dimensional phenomenon--The 5thoperational feature in our universe. In this treatise on the full dimensional aspects of sentience, the author introduces Awareness Field Theory (AFT) to explain it all, and reveals how those insights will unfold the next evolutionary steps for our species.
The 5thPhenomenon parses what has already been examined about the nature of personal consciousness, and then pushes out to a sublime edge that is alive with relevance. Religion, spirituality, philosophy, psychology, physics, ontology, epigenetics, systems theory and cosmology all come under the review of a new form of intelligence. As AFT illuminates and expands traditional academic horizons, it simultaneously creates an invitation that serves to transform personal understanding around our existence. In the end, AFT musters as existential collateral, a new hope--married to crucial insight--about how the art of consciousness might allow us as individuals to become radically free while collectively united.
