Origin of consciousness in the breakdown of the bicameral mind

At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion -- and indeed our future.

  • "Basandose en estudios del cerebro y en testimonios arqueologicos, Julian Jaynes nos muestra que los pueblos antiguos, desde los de Mesopotamia hasta los del Peru, no tenian la consciencia de introspección por lo que experimentaban alucinaciones auditivas que, procedentes del hemisferio derecho del cerebro, indican lo que debe hacer una persona en circunstancias nuevas o deprimentes."@es
  • "What is human consciousness, where did it come from, and how does it determine who we are and how we live in the world? At the heart of this book is the theory that human consciousness did not develop over time--that, in fact, ancient peoples from mesopotamia to Peru did not "think" as we do and therefore were not conscious. Drawing on laboratory studies of the brain and clos examination of archaeological evidence, the author concludes that consciousness is not a product of evolution but of catastrophic events in our own history, events that occurred as recently as three thousand years ago."
