"We assume that when people talk about "consciousness," there is something to be explained. While most neuroscientists acknowledge that consciousness exists, and that at present it is something of a mystery, most of them do not attempt to study it, mainly for one of two reasons: (1) They consider it to be a philosophical problem, and so best left to philosophers. (2) They concede that it is a scientific problem, but think it is premature to study it now. We have taken exactly the opposite point of view. We think that most of the philosophical aspects of the problem should, for the moment, be left on one side, and that the time to start the scientific attack is now."

This is a poorly written research design, no wonder nobody published it. There are countless quarterly periodicals devoted to this subject and apparently none of them agree that consciousness is rooted in eyesight.

Ugh! The study of consciousness is ridiculous. People have had experience with it all their lives; why would anyone want to study it? I say peusedo-intellectual wankery.

From the page: The main purposes of this review are to set out for neuroscientists one possible approach to the problem of consciousness and to describe the relevant ongoing experimental work. We have not attempted an exhaustive review of other approaches.
