The goal of the podcast "Sense and Science" is to discuss ideas and science. The starting point is often, but not always, popular science books that deal with nature or society where the author and I discuss the topic. And here the goal is not to win the debate, but to use discussion as a means of clarifying topics for ourselves and listeners. «Sense and Science» is a collection of the English podcasts in the (generally) Norwegian podcast "Vett og vitenskap".

<p>The greatest mystery of all is why a group of atoms, like the ones constituting me, can feel anything. The mind-brain problem has puzzled philosophers for millennia.</p> <p>Thanks to pioneers like Christof Koch, consciousness studies have recently become a legitimate field of scientific inquiry. He has written three excellent books on the topic.</p> <p>We discuss many aspects of the phenomenon, including an intriguing candidate theory: Integrated Information Theory.</p>
