Historia3.5 out of 5 stars 29
What is consciousness? How do physical processes in the brain give rise to the self-aware mind and to feelings as profoundly varied as love or hate, aesthetic pleasure or spiritual yearning? These questions today are among the most hotly debated issues among scientists and philosophers. Philosopher David J. Chalmers offers a cogent analysis of this heated debate as he unveils a major new theory of consciousness, one that rejects the prevailing reductionist trend of science, while offering provocative insights into the relationship between mind and brain.

Lots of problems with the recording.
Revisado: 10-07-21
I don't know if it was corrupted as I downloaded it or if it was a problem of the original recording, but there were a lot of skips, enough that at points the book became hard to follow, which not what you want in a dense philosophy book.

Dr. Muesse is an engaging presenter with a deep knowledge and passion for the subject, I can't recommend his courses highly enough.

Can literature change our real world society? At its foundation, utopian and dystopian fiction asks a few seemingly simple questions aimed at doing just that. Who are we as a society? Who do we want to be? Who are we afraid we might become? When these questions are framed in the speculative versions of Heaven and Hell on earth, you won't find easy answers, but you will find tremendously insightful and often entertaining perspectives.

Great subject, not so great instructor
Revisado: 04-01-17
Her ostentatious pronunciation of French names ranks among history's most awful crimes, and it seems strange that an expert in genre fiction would not know how to pronounce Dashiell Hammett's name. There is a possibility that you may hear about some books you haven't read before, but not if you're a fan of the genre already, and it's an awkward, irritating slog for a few nuggets of insight. I returned this course half way through.
