    The Royal Institution: The Source of Consciousness (Mark Solms)

    DESCRIPTION

    Mark Solms discusses his new theory of consciousness that returns emotions to the centre of mental life. Mark's book "The Hidden Spring" is available now at https://geni.us/CWaA.

    Understanding why we feel a subjective sense of self and how it arises in the brain seems like an impossible task. Mark explores the subjective experiences of hundreds of neurological patients, many of whom he treated. Their uncanny conversations help to expose the brain’s obscure reaches.

    Mark Solms has spent his entire career investigating the mysteries of consciousness. Best known for identifying the brain mechanisms of dreaming and for bringing psychoanalytic insights into modern neuroscience, he is director of neuropsychology in the Neuroscience Institute of the University of Cape Town, honorary lecturer in neurosurgery at the Royal London Hospital School of Medicine, and an honorary fellow of the American College of Psychiatrists.
