Cognitive Anomalies, Consciousness and Yoga (History of Science, Philosophy and Culture in Indian Civilization, Vol. XVI, Part 1) by K. Ramakrishna Rao (Author) & D.P. Chattopadhyaya (Gen. Ed.) - 2011

Matrix Publishers, 2011. First edition. Hardcover. New. 23 X 29 cm. Cognitive Anomalies, Consciousness and Yoga is Professor Ramakrishna Rao’s magnum opus, a culmination of life-long efforts to develop a comprehensive model of the person that is inclusive of our rational, emotional and spiritual dimensions without reducing or converting one into another. Professor Rao is a psychologist for a unified understanding of human nature. His arguments move with ease from Upanishadic conceptions to current phenomenological and existential discources on the mind and from quantum mechanics and particle physics to neural correlates of consciousness. Professor Rao sets out in the book with the primary question who we are. Are we merely brain-driven machines? Is synchrony? Is this anything in us that does not fit into the material framework of the universe and calls for a paradigmatic shift in our search for a more inclusive universe? Cognitive Anomalies, consciousness and Yoga are three books in one, together they give a comprehensive picture of the person. Printed Pages: 904.
