Consciousness: Clinical and Beyond by Professor, P. N. Tandon brings into focus clinical, neuro-biological, and philosophical studies on consciousness. I felicitate the learned scholar for his valuable presentation on consciousness which is a burning topic among a variety of experts: neuro-scientists micro-biologists, computer experts, philosophers etc. I do hope that his analysis will be welcomed by scholars and interested readers.
