Paperback octavo, very good plus condition. 298 pp. The much-debated 'hard problems' in the emerging field of consciousness studies revolve around the difficulty in reconciling our first-person 'folk psychology' account of ourselves with our scientific understanding of the world. Despite the occasional dissident voice (for instance Anthony Freeman), most people are agreed that we all 'know' that we have some degree of volitional control over the sort of experiences that we undergo. But when we try to reconcile this with our physics-based & biology-based understanding of the world, we run into a number of serious well-documented problems.
