Abstract / Summary
Exploring the meaning of consciousness, this program considers what can be learned about consciousness from individuals who are asleep or under anesthesia. It features James Burke, who looks at the reticular formation, which is the part of the brain that regulates states of consciousness, and considers possible functions of dreaming and sleep in the processing of information received during wakefulness. The DVD examines the ways in which the conscious mind operates by following an individual to a party, as he recognizes the host, and through various social interactions.
