More about the book
The book employs communication theory to analyze the Global Neuronal Workspace (GNW) model of consciousness, originally proposed by Bernard Baars. It utilizes a formal mathematical approach to explore the interactions between cognitive, biological, and social modules, drawing parallels with statistical physics. The analysis leads to a dynamic threshold for consciousness, akin to a phase transition, while introducing a Rate Distortion manifold that reflects the hierarchical constraints influencing conscious experience. This perspective deepens the understanding of the contextual factors affecting consciousness.
