About this product

Product Information

At the heart of this revised edition is the idea that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution, but is a learned process brought into being as recently as 3000 years ago out of an earlier hallucinatory mentality. The implications of this theory extend into all aspects of man's psychology, history, culture, religion and even future. Included in this edition is an introduction in which the author answers critics of his theory and presents his new ideas.

    Arrived well packed and just as described - but without CD which should have been inside the outer cover. It was obviously an oversight by seller. I contacted seller who immediately gave me full refund - within 2 minutes of my email! - and told me to keep the book. This is exceptional service and went above and beyond what is expected. Thank You so much 👍

  • Well worth the time and the money.

    I rated this book in this way because I was just blown away by the content and the wonderfully entertaining way it was written. The writer is so well informed. Some of the areas discussed can be really confusing but Jaynes makes them so clear and so entertaining. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in tracing the appearance of consciousness in man. The section on Metaphor I found enlightening. It was made really clear. It really made me want to examine words and their etymology with more care. It is a fascinating read.
