What links conscious experience of pain, joy, color, and smell to bioelectrical activity in the brain? How can anything physical give rise to nonphysical, subjective, conscious states? Christof Koch has devoted much of his career to bridging the seemingly unbridgeable gap between the physics of the brain and phenomenal experience. This engaging book--part scientific overview, part memoir, part futurist speculation--describes Koch's search for an empirical explanation for consciousness. Koch recounts not only the birth of the modern science of consciousness but also the subterranean motivation for his quest--his instinctual (if "romantic") belief that life is meaningful. Koch describes his own groundbreaking work with Francis Crick in the 1990s and 2000s and the gradual emergence of consciousness (once considered a "fringy" subject) as a legitimate topic for scientific investigation. Present at this paradigm shift were Koch and a handful of colleagues, including Ned Block, David Chalmers, Stanislas Dehaene, Giulio Tononi, Wolf Singer, and others. Aiding and abetting it were new techniques to listen in on the activity of individual nerve cells, clinical studies, and brain-imaging technologies that allowed safe and noninvasive study of the human brain in action. Koch gives us stories from the front lines of modern research into the neurobiology of consciousness as well as his own reflections on a variety of topics, including the distinction between attention and awareness, the unconscious, how neurons respond to Homer Simpson, the physics and biology of free will, dogs, Der Ring des Nibelungen, sentient machines, the loss of his belief in a personal God, and sadness. All of them are signposts in the pursuit of his life's work--to uncover the roots of consciousness.

評分看瞭蠻久的一本書,不能算完完全全讀懂,不過感覺作者是很有趣很有智慧的人。通過蠻有趣蠻實在的實驗從比較學術的角度探討consciousness並且在探討過程中抒發貼近生活的思考。所以書名還是非常恰當的。I'm the master of my fate, I'm the captain of my soul, 在最後一章看到瞭整個大學期間的手機屏保。 作者所體現齣的人生態度以及對“God”的見解我個人還是非常認可的,看得越多就覺得很多書裏萬物皆為一物的大思想,以及unconsciousness在生活中的角色地位是可以串起來的,隻不過描述的方式不同罷瞭。
評分要說之前還對歐陸哲學保持著敬畏的話(雖然並不懂),現在則是被改造成瞭一個reductionist。。。不然要懷疑人生瞭。。
評分贊萬物有靈!雖然作者鄙視瞭果蠅的精神世界

很有意思的书,讲什么是 consciousness 以及如何才算具有 consciousness、如何测量等等。虽然是以正经做学术的态度多年一直研究这个问题,但是书其实是一种比较科普的方式写出来的,当然最遗憾的是最终并没有一个解答。相比给出答案,更多地是提出了许多相关的问题和思考的方向...
評分作者懒散的文风和满嘴跑火车的风格并不讨喜,夹叙夹议充斥自己鄙视的哲学论辩。 中心思想倒很明确,对意识的二元论思维嗤之以鼻,核心是神经元网络的整体互动关系产生意识,信息整合理论是作者信奉的意识理论。虽然信息科技的发展在信息处理的神经元整体数量级在逼近大脑神经元...
