Mallatt differentiated the types of consciousness and utilized an inter-disciplinary approach to the science behind how the brain creates experiences, thus attempting to solve the hard problem of consciousness. He recommends more focus on the brain function of lower animals rather than humans and other primates, or even other mammals.
Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
