This book attempts to advance Donald Griffin’s vision of the “final, crowning chapter of the Darwinian revolution” by developing a philosophy for the science of animal consciousness. It advocates a Darwinian bottom-up approach that treats consciousness as a complex, evolved, and multidimensional phenomenon in nature rather than a mysterious all-or-nothing property immune to the tools of science and restricted to a single species.
