Consciousness as an instinct. Gazzaniga M.

Michael Gazzaniga is a famous American neuropsychologist, the author of many popular science books, one of those who in the middle of the twentieth century created a bioemic studying the moral aspect of human activity in medicine and biology. In the book “Consciousness as Instinct”, he convincingly proves that consciousness is not a certain “thing” that can be found somewhere in the brain. Consciousness is born from an entire network of “modules” located in the brain, each of which brings his contribution to our stream of consciousness. However, it is possible that the “stream of consciousness” is an illusion; It is possible that we perceive the rapid change of details of what is happening in the brain as something continuous, as the shots of film combined together. This book will appeal to everyone who wants to understand the secrets of our brain and find out what neurobiology and neuropsychology will be done in the near future.
