Book Description: "What is consciousness How do physical processes in the brain give rise to the self-aware mind and to feelings as profoundly varied as love or hate aesthetic pleasure or spiritual yearning .In 'The Conscious Mind' philosopher David J. Chalmers offers a cogent analysis of this heated debate as he unveils a major new theory of consciousness one that rejects the prevailing reductionist trend of science while offering provocative insights into the relationship between mind and brain. Writing in a rigorous thought-provoking style the author takes us on a far-reaching tour through the philosophical ramifications of consciousness. Chalmers convincingly reveals how contemporary cognitive science and neurobiology have failed to explain how and why mental events emerge from physiological occurrences in the brain. He proposes instead that conscious experience must be understood in an entirely new light--as an irreducible entity similar to such physical properties as time mass and space that exists at a fundamental level and cannot be understood as the sum of its parts. And after suggesting some intriguing possibilities about the structure and laws of conscious experience he details how his unique reinterpretation of the mind could be the focus of a new science. Throughout the book Chalmers provides fascinating thought experiments that trenchantly illustrate his ideas. For example in exploring the notion that consciousness could be experienced by machines as well as humans Chalmers asks us to imagine a thinking brain in which neurons are slowly replaced by silicon chips that precisely duplicate their functions--as the neurons are replaced will consciousness gradually fade away The book also features thoughtful discussions of how the author's theories might be practically applied to subjects as diverse as artificial intelligence and the interpretation of quantum mechanics. All of us have pondered the nature and meaning of consciousness. Engaging and penetrating 'The Conscious Mind' adds a fresh new perspective to the subject that is sure to spark debate about our understanding of the mind for years to come.

Good.</p><p>RARE.</p><p>In his nearly 4-page article on Soviet concentration camps David Dallin writes of "The Growth of Soviet Serfdom" followed by "The Gulag and Manpower" "How the Camps are Run" and "How Many Million Slave Laborers".</p><p>David J. Dallin 1889-1962 was born in Belarus and was arrested by the Bolsheviks as he was a Menshevik leader. He fled first to Germany and then to Poland. At the start of WWII he fled to the United States. There he became a writer and lecturer on Soviet affairs.</p><p>Dallin's article is followed by Helena Sikorska's account from her husband's Polish Prime Minister in Exile notes of Soviet labor camps from 1939 to 1941. These accounts were published anonymously in a book titled "The Dark Side of the Moon" London: Faber 1946.</p><p>The final 2-1/2 pages is a remarkable passionate appeal to the world by Dr. Julius Margolin. His book "A Journey to the Land Ze-Ka" one of the first to be written on the Soviet gulag would not be published until 1949 in an abridged form. He writes: "An entire generation of Zionists has died in Soviet prisons camps and exile. We were never able to come to their rescue and this is not only because it was difficult but above all because we had lost all heart-felt spiritual contact with them. We did not care about them."</p><p>Julius Margolin 1900-1971 was an Israeli political activist who spent 5 years in Soviet prison camps.</p><p>"The New Leader a social-democratic journal of news and opinion commented upon engaged with – and at times actively attempted to reconfigure – the tenor of its epoch. From 1924 to 2006 it printed significant work by prominent intellectuals on an array of subjects but it devoted its best energies and much of its editorial space to criticizing the Soviet Union. Originating as the official newspaper of the American Socialist Party it evolved into a liberal anti-communist magazine that truly found its voice as an untiring adversary of Stalinism. The combination of progressive social advocacy and staunch Cold War combativeness allowed it to engage an unusually wide swath of the political spectrum; its stances attracted praise or ire – and often both – from figures as diverse as Upton Sinclair and Senator Joseph McCarthy. 'It would be impossible for any normal person to agree with all that appears in The New Leader' wrote The New York Times on the occasion of the journal's thirtieth anniversary 'but it is possible for all lovers of free expression to welcome the fact that The New Leader exists and that with its variety of voices it continues to sound off.' For eighty-two years the magazine featured crucial vivid reportage. 'Every good impulse in social and political life has had the support of this paper' a columnist noted. 'Every lively honest and decent writer who had something interesting and important to say has had his chance.' Martin Luther King Jr.'s 'Letter From Birmingham City Jail' appeared in its pages; it was the first American periodical to provide a forum for Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. World leaders and policymakers contributed essays as did literary icons such as Albert Camus Arthur Koestler Richard Wright Hannah Arendt and George Orwell." - Quoted from a description provided by Columbia University.</p> New York, NY: The New Leader, 1947. paperback
