了解意识是生物学上尚未解决的重大问题之一。一种日益受关注的方法是通过研究意识疾病，如脑损伤和疾病导致的植物人、昏迷、最小意识状态等来理解意识。许多类似的研究受到公众的关注，因为他们和昏迷病人关联引起的争议，以及与人类一些哲学、社会学、政治和宗教学的关系等。本书是第一本概述当代人们从神经解剖学和功能性角度理解人类意识的书，强调了通过研究神经疾病患者进行学习的一种损伤性方法。作者均为在此领域顶尖的专家学者。

Understanding consciousness is the major unsolved problem in biology. One increasingly important method of studying consciousness is to study disorders of consciousness, e.g. brain damage and disease states leading to vegetative states, coma, minimally conscious states, etc. Many of these studies are very much in the public eye because of their relationship to controversies about coma patients (e.g. Terry Schiavo case in the US recently), and the relationship to one of the major philosophical, sociological, political, and religious questions of humankind.
This is the first book to summarize our current understanding of the neuroanatomical and functional underpinnings of human consciousness by emphasizing a lesional approach offered via the study of neurological patients. The selected contributors are all outstanding authors and undisputed leaders in their field.
