This work covers topics of consciousness from both a natural science and cognitive psychology viewpoint. Based on the belief that psychology is a natural phenomenon and product of the brain's functioning, it emphasizes systematic research and theoretical interpretations and discusses clinical applications as well as conceptual and philosophical issues.
