Abstract (EN): Welcome to an extraordinary journey aboard a philosophical caravel guided by the Author through 'seas never before navigated.' This odyssey through the tempestuous seas of the mind includes contributions from eight of the brightest international experts on the brain and consciousness, including Nobel Prize-winning physicist Sir Roger Penrose. Divided into two parts, the book begins with Steven S. Gouveia plotting the fundamental coordinates of philosophy and the science of the mind. The second part comes to life in the Author's dialogues with the eight thinkers, providing a unique experience of intellectual exploration. Prepare to set sail into the unknown, where science and philosophy converge in a captivating journey through the mysteries of the conscious mind.
