Consciousness and the Brain: Deciphering How the Brain Codes Our Thoughts

The book "Consciousness and the Brain" by Stanislas Dehaene is a groundbreaking exploration of the mysteries of conscious thought and its underlying brain processes.

Through cutting-edge psychological and brain-imaging experiments, scientists have made significant progress in understanding how the brain generates consciousness and why much of our knowledge remains unconscious.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the pioneering work done by Dehaene's lab and other cognitive neuroscientists worldwide to define, test, and explain the brain events behind a conscious state.

The author describes how neurons fire when a person becomes aware of information and the crucial role unconscious computations play in decision-making.

The book also delves into the ethical implications of finally quantifying consciousness and offers a test of consciousness in animals, babies, and those with severe brain injuries.
