I just finished reading the Zombie article. It was fun and interesting.
These ideas reminded me of Oliver Sacks,
tell me mary, in what way does this remind you of the zombie articles?

>Here's the blurb from Amazon:

>At the close of the 20th century what do we human beings know about why we
>are here? To address this and other big questions, a diverse cast of six of
>today's great thinkers was assembled into an intellectual roundtable to
>discuss, debate, and argue their points. The result is A Glorious Accident.
>Before the roundtable discussion, a series of personal interviews was
>conducted with each participating guest. Starting with a Shakespeare quote:
>"We are such stuff as dreams are made on and our little lives are rounded
>with a sleep," Kayzer contacted each of the participants, inviting them to
>discuss some of the following "unanswerable" questions: What is the nature
>of our consciousness? What concepts has our consciousness developed about
>our temporal existence? What will we derive most from our consciousness:
>knowledge or understanding? What were the questions that fascinated you
when
>you were growing up? What questions keep you spellbound today?

>I haven't read the book yet, but intend to.
