The Caldron of Consciousness: Motivation, Affect and Self-Organization - An Anthology
Natika Newton, Natika Newton, Ralph D. Ellis
This text features studies by prominent neuroscientists, psychologists and philosophers working towards a coherent framework for understanding emotion and its contribution to the functioning of consciousness in general, as an aspect of self-organizing, embodied subjects. Distinguishing consciousness from unconscious information processing hinges on the role of motivating emotions in all conscious modalities, and how emotional brain processes interact with those traditionally associated with cognitive function.
