Consciousness and its objects

Consciousness and its objects / Colin McGinn.

Colin McGinn presents his work on consciousness in ten interlinked essays, four of them previously unpublished. He extends and deepens his controversial solution to the mind-body problem, defending the view that consciousness is both ontologically unproblematic and epistemologically impenetrable.
