Description

In the years since Daniel Dennett's influential Consciousness Explained was published in 1991, scientific research on consciousness has been a hotly contested battleground of rival theories. With Sweet Dreams, Dennett returns to the subject for "revision and renewal" of his theory of consciousness, taking into account major empirical advances in the field since 1991 as well as recent theoretical challenges. He recasts the Multiple Drafts Model as the "fame in the brain" model to examine the philosophical issues that "continue to bedevil the field." Dennett enlivens his arguments with vivid examples, defending heterophenomenology and addressing various thought experiments in the realm of consciousness. Sorry!
