Sweet Dreams: Philosophical Obstacles to a Science of Consciousness by Daniel C. Dennett

Sweet Dreams: Philosophical Obstacles to a Science of Consciousness (Jean Nicod Lectures) by Daniel C. Dennett
A Bradford Book | February 25, 2005 | English | ISBN: 0262042258 | 201 pages | PDF | 1 MB

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 – "so rambunctious," Dennett observes, "that several people are writing books just about the tumult." 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.
