From Brains To Consciousness

From Brains to Consciousness (1998) – Steven Rose | Crappy Old Books

Take a mind-bending journey from neurons to notions with From Brains to Consciousness by Steven Rose, published by Allen Lane in 1998. This thought-provoking collection of essays and debates brings together leading scientists and philosophers to tackle the age-old question: how do physical brains produce conscious experience?

Curated by neurobiologist Steven Rose, the book doesn’t shy away from the complexities of mind and matter, featuring contributions from figures like Oliver Sacks, Roger Penrose, and Daniel Dennett. It’s a heady mix of biology, psychology, and philosophy – perfect for anyone who likes their science scrambled with a side of existential crisis.

A bit dog-eared, maybe a cracked spine or two, but still packed with enough cerebral firepower to make your frontal lobes ache – exactly what you’d expect from Crappy Old Books.

Condition as new, however, there area mall number of pencilled text underlines, but I only noticed 2-3 whilst flicking through and they are quite small, short and in light pencil.
