The best and only comprehensive book on the science.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Psychology of Consciousness: Psych Consciousness & Reaching Full Potential Pkg. (Paperback)
Want to know what psychologists, rather than philosophers, have to say about consciousness? Want a quick, authoritative survey of scientific research on sleep and dreams, hypnosis, meditation? This is the best and only comprehensive book reviewing scientific research on consciousness and various altered states of consciousness. It's a little old now, and in need of revision, but it's still the best place to start.

This review is from: Psychology of Consciousness: Psych Consciousness & Reaching Full Potential Pkg. (Paperback)
Excellent product, condition did leave something to be desired but the old idiom "don't judge a book by it's cover" holds true. The information is well developed and excellent for any student wishing to get a footing in consciousness, whether he or she be majoring in biology and philosophy. I would recommend reading it to prior, during, after any class on consciousness, it's an excellent reinforcement.
