A convincing reassertion of consciousness as an evolutionary triumph and the center of human genius. In this polemical work, Merlin Donald refutes the arguments of scientists and philosophers who dismiss consciousness as a superficial byproduct of evolution. His thesis presents the forces, both cultural and neuronal, that power the distinctively human modes of awareness. 8 b/w line drawings.
