    Default Good books on concioussness/the mind

    Can anyone recommend some good books on these topics? I'm very interested in what conciousness is in the latest advancements of neuroscience and how that area is progressing.
    I'm also sort of interested in these ideas of dualism and the arguments for it and against it.

    I am a noob however really am only looking for an easy to read introductory guide to the topic. Thanks.

    I can't say that I'm familiar with this topic, but I did an Amazon search looking at the most popular and the ones with the most good reviews and found these:
