This book details a model of consciousness supported by scientific
experimental data from the human brain. It presents how the Corollary
Discharge of Attention Movement (CODAM) neural network model allows
for a scientific understanding of consciousness as well as provides a
solution to the Mind-Body problem. The book provides readers with a
general approach to consciousness that is powerful enough to lead to
the inner self and its ramifications for the vast range of human
experiences. It also offers an approach to the evolution of human
consciousness and features chapters on mental disease (especially
schizophrenia) and on meditative states (including drug-induced states
of mind). Solving the Mind-Body Problem bridges the gap that exists
between philosophers of mind and the neuroscience community, allowing
the enormous weight of theorizing on the nature of mind to be brought
to earth and put under the probing gaze of the scientific facts of
life and mind.
