In this thought-provoking 12-lecture series, Professor Robinson delves into the enigmatic nature of consciousness, a subject that has perplexed philosophers and scientists for centuries. Rather than sidestepping the complexities, he rigorously examines the challenges faced by various disciplines while tackling fundamental questions about the study and implications of consciousness. Drawing on the insights of renowned thinkers like John Locke and Ludwig Wittgenstein, the series also highlights the ethical dilemmas associated with consciousness, including its relationship to artificial intelligence and the self.
