To be or not to be / Sobre a grande ilusão da consciência

Susan Blackmore tenta explicar a grande questão:

Como é que processos físicos, no cérebro, originam experiências subjectivas?

"Consciousness flows like a stream"
"Do you believe in free will. do you believe you can control the actions of your body?"

Introspective analysis is like seizing a spinning top to catch its motion, or trying to turn up the gas quickly enough to see how the darkness looks.
