Seeing Red by Nicholas Humphrey

Rating: 5/5

Inside jacket Snippet: ‘… Consciousness matters. The purpose of this book is to build toward an explanation of just what the matter is. …”

Comments:

A well presented, well written, easy to read book describing a reasonable consciousness explanation. Since I am not publishing anything in scientific journals… I can say I like other consciousness explanations better,  mainly because they are more exciting and sci-fi than this one. This book provides a sensible evolutionary driven adaption to manage sensory inputs with a bit of thick time-space for a slightly larger present human-mind moment. Overall the book is worth reading, but not super fun like a 9th chakra or Terence McKenna’s trialogue talks.
