Consciousness and the Social Brain, Michael Graziano, Review

"Awareness is a description of attention.… I use the word [attention] in a neuroscientific sense. I am referring to a mechanistic process in the brain.... According to the theory, the statement “X is conscious” means “a brain (or other computational device) constructed an informational model of consciousness and attributed it to X.” Thus begins my review of Graziano's book.
