"This volume, comprising specially commissioned papers by leading philosophers, represents some of the most rigorous philosophical thinking on consciousness and related issues ... Extensive references after each selection, informative footnotes, and a short index make this book required reading for all who are interested in the philosophical foundations of viable accounts of consciousness. Highly recommended."--H. Storl, CHOICE
"The essays in Introspection and Consciousness make important contributions to the study of the formal structure of a theory of introspective justification." --Philosophical Psychology
