Consciousness: Confessions of a Romantic Reductionist, with Seattle author and scientist Christof Koch. His masterful book is part memoir of his personal struggles and part hard science about how psychology, physics, and neurosurgery have contributed to the modern understanding of consciousness and unconsciousness. "Koch has done for neuroscience what James D. Watson did for biology. At once engaging, informing, and enlightening, Consciousness should be read by every student and scientist of the mind ... who would like to know how science really works and how scientists really think - and feel - when they engage the world with their experimental tools. Destined to takes its place as a timeless masterpiece in the history of science." ~ Michael Shermer, author of The Believing Brain
