Abstract

Broadly speaking, there are only a few possible responses to the paradox of consciousness. I cannot say I have much confidence in any of them but permit myself some hope that the list of options considered in this chapter is complete, so that one of them will provide the escape route. Three of the four routes are familiar, the fourth, perhaps the most radical of them all, is more novel.
