Landing a chopper from 100 feet is pretty amazing too

While I did quite enjoy this, from an intellectual personal point of view, it was missing four key elements. There were no cognitive psychological explanations, no explanations of consciousness, no mention of hallucinogens, and no historical reference to the great European phenomenologists.

It is interesting showing these illusions, and also interesting looking at brain scans, but the academic truth is that we do not know how the brain processes information in the brain, how we experience these consciously, what this means for science itself which is entirely dependent on consciousness and subjective experience, and how can we account for the grand qualitative transformations of consciousness and the ineffable experiences of natural plant hallucinogens.

That's my tuppence worth. But hey, I guess it is asking too much of a programme to cover all that lot ay? ๐Ÿ™‚
