THE PHILOSOPHY AND THEORY OF CONSCIOUSNESS - NEW SECTION ON TESTABLE IDEAS
ON CONSCIOUSNESS

A Nagelian Neurology of Consciousness?
- by Chris Nunn

"The aim of this paper is to explore the possibility that Nagel's well-known
account has implications for understanding the neural basis of
consciousness. In a world assumed to be non-dualistic, it is argued that
Nagel's view (i.e. that consciousness is what an organism possesses when
there is something that it is like to be itself) implies that consciousness
is an attribute of some system in the brain that maps patterns of spike
train activity. Various considerations suggest that any such system is
likely to operate on analog principles."
