Description for Brain, Mind and Consciousness: Advances in Neuroscience Research
hardcover. This book offers principles countering ideas that local mechanical processes alone account for the structure of all empirical data and shows how contemporary physical theory introduces psychologically described choices by human agents about how they will act. Num Pages: 142 pages, biography. BIC Classification: JMM; MMH; PSAN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 240 x 160 x 16. Weight in Grams: 397.

Contemporary basic physical theory differs from classic physics on the important matter of how consciousness of human agents enters into the structure of empirical phenomena. The new principles contradict the older idea that local mechanical processes alone account for the structure of all empirical ... Read more
