Wiring the human brain (Introduction)
how consciousness appears or where it is based, expecially in view of NDE's. > > Despite Adler, I'm still with dhw. I'm not convinced that aside from abstract language, the differences are that profound. Even squids have been shown to have the capacity for inference and syntactical structures based on body language. -Would you rather be a squid. A minor ability by a squid and you go all gogo-gaga. Baboons can pick out some four leter words. Big deal. Want to limit yourself to baboon thought? Know any chimp that can do the computer programming you do? It is not just abstract language; this is a tiny part of the mental differences.
