Societies of brains: Walter Freeman in conversation with Jean Burns
Journal of Consciousness Studies 3 (2):172-180 (1996)
Abstract
[opening paragraph]: Walter Freeman discusses with Jean Burns some of the issues relating to consciousness in his recent book. Burns: To understand consciousness we need know its relationship to the brain, and to do that we need to know how the brain processes information. A lot of people think of brain processing in terms of individual neurons, and you're saying that brain processing should be understood in terms of dynamical states of populations?Author's Profile
