What makes us conscious? In this eminently readable, thought-provoking text Carter Blakelaw starts by pinning down the essential features of our personal, conscious experience, and examines what purpose is served by our being conscious.
Then, reasoning from what he has established must be true about being conscious, he goes on to describe a mechanism and process that would experience the world in the same way that we experience the world and which, whenever and wherever reproduced, would itself be conscious.
