How can the fine-grained phenomenology of conscious experience arise from neural processes in the brain? How does a set of action potentials (nerve impulses) become like the feeling of pain in one's experience? This book explains the key concepts that surround the issue as well as the nature of the hard problem and the several approaches to it.
