Neuroscientists have gathered empirical evidence about consciousness and human nature. This evidence begins to give substance to some of the intuitive leaps made in the 19th and early 20th century about the nature of the self. This book presents an introduction to the thinking on the brain and the mind by some of the world's leading experts.
