From Existence To Life: The Science Of Self-Consciousness

James Porter Mills

""From Existence to Life: The Science of Self-Consciousness"" by James Porter Mills is a comprehensive exploration of the nature of self-consciousness and its origins in the natural world. The book draws on a wide range of scientific disciplines, including neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy, to provide a detailed account of how self-awareness emerges from the complex interactions of the brain and body. Mills argues that self-consciousness is not a fixed, immutable trait but rather a dynamic process that evolves over time. He examines the role of evolution in shaping the development of self-consciousness and explores the ways in which our social and cultural environments influence our sense of self. The book also delves into the implications of self-consciousness for our understanding of consciousness more broadly. Mills suggests that a deeper understanding of self-consciousness can help us to better understand the nature of consciousness itself and its relationship to the physical world. Overall, ""From Existence to Life"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of the most fundamental aspects of human experience. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the science of consciousness and the nature of the self.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
