Good foundational book on neural correlates of consciousness with technical evidence. Must read for this field. (

Koch was the latter-day collaborator of Francis Crick (1916-2004), in S Calif, doing lab work on the neuronal correlates of consciousness. "We live at a unique point in the history of science. The technology to discover and characterize how the subjective mind emerges out of the objective brain is within reach. The next years will prove decisive." (p 314)
