About this book

Origin of Consciousness by Jaynes, Julian. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780395324400.

At the heart of this book is the revolutionary idea that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution. Rather, Jaynes presents consciousness as a learned process that evolved from an earlier hallucinatory mentality only three thousand years ago. The implications extend into every aspect if human life.
