Writing in an accessible yet thought-provoking style, David Chalmers takes us on a far-reaching tour through the philosophical ramifications of consciousness. Throughout the book, Chalmers provides fascinating thought experiments that trenchantly illustrate his ideas, as well as thoughtful discussions of how his theories might be practically applied to subjects as diverse as artificial intelligence intelligence and the interpretation of quantum mechanics.
