Includes bibliographical references and index.

Do we really need another theory of consciousness? -- Which states are conscious?: the intermediate level -- When are we conscious?: attention and availability -- Does consciousness outstrip perception?: a restrictive view -- Why are we conscious?: action without enaction -- Whose conscious states are these?: the illusory self -- How is consciousness unified?: attentional resonance -- What is consciousness?: neural correlates and nuerofunctionalism -- Could consciousness be physical?: the brain maintained -- Conclusion: AIR compared.

Synthesizing decades of research, this book advances a theory of the psychological and neurophysiological correlates of conscious experience. Prinz argues that consciousness always arises at a particular stage of perceptual processing, the intermediate level, and that consciousness depends on attention.
