CFI-NYC | The Science and Philosophy of Consciousness

On Feb. 13, 2011, the Center for Inquiry-New York City and New York City Skeptics presented a Darwin Day forum featuring NYU philosopher Ned Block, and Jacqueline Gottlieb, neuroscientist at Columbia University. The speakers made presentations about their respective philosophical and scientific approaches to consciousness, then sat down for a question-and-answer session with Massimo Pigliucci, chair of the philosophy department at Lehman College. The event was held at New York University in Tishman Auditorium.
