CONSCIOUSNESS, DREAMS AND SELF: A TRANSDISCIPLINARY APPROACH

Winner of the Outstanding Academic Book Award (1997-Choice, the American Library Association)

“In Consciousness, Dreams, and Self, Dr. J.B. Arden has produced a masterful synthesis of biological, philosophical, and psychophysiological perspectives on human consciousness. Arden has deliberately proposed a paradigm shift that would accommodate his views on consciousness as a contextual, fluid process—one that is especially well illustrated in his chapters on dreaming. Although consciousness was neglected by mainstream science for many decades, there is now a plethora of books on the topic. Arden’s contribution is unique, and his readers will find their ideas about consciousness both challenged and expanded.”
- Stanley Krippner, PhD, Professor of Psychology, Saybrook Institute

“An interesting overview of current knowledge and speculation in consciousness research.”
-Karl Pribram, MD, Professor, Radford University, Professor Emeritus, Stanford University

“In this bold extension of the biopsychosocial model of mind-body/body-mind using now necessary concepts of nonlinear dynamics, Dr. Arden impressively approaches an integration between the objective body of science and the phenomenological body of experienced meaning.”
-George Solomon, MD, Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences, University of California, Los Angeles

SCIENCE, THEOLOGY AND CONSCIOUSNESS
“Arden's book is an excellent attempt to help us move beyond an overdependence on the science of the past century and broaden our focus, methodology, and explanatory power by moving into the much larger framework of contemporary science and the developing science of the 21st century....Arden's book is an excellent way to get started in expanding our personal and professional horizons and in expanding the future of psychology.”
–Charles Tart, PhD in the Journal of Contemporary Psychology<

“Arden's scholarship is important because it informs us so clearly in this day of over-specialization that the human experience is not a creature of specialization, but grows from a wealth of influences that can only be understood by standing at the nexus of many disciplinary perspectives.”
–Allan Combs, PhD University of North Carolina Author, Radiance of Being

“As we enter a new millennium, the relationships between spirituality, science, and the concept of consciousness are being redefined. This is one of the clearest and most inspiring visions of what the new picture may be.”
–Larry Dossey, MD, Executive Editor, Alternative Therapies Author, Healing Words and Space, Time, and Medicine

AMERICA'S MELTDOWN
As entertainers, corporations, and even the government pander to the lowest common denominator, American life becomes increasingly vicarious, prefabricated, and bereft of meaning. This book examines contemporary American consciousness, considering the factors that have driven society toward gossip and sensationalism at the cost of substance and depth.

“Written in a trenchant style yet employing vernacular befitting a pop psychologist, this is a scathing critique of the rampant vulgarity, violence, and voyeurism in contemporary US mass culture, rooted in the cash nexus of corporate capitalism....Highly recommended. All levels and libraries.”
–Choice

“None of Arden's observations is new, but he presents them coherently and convincingly, and thoughtful readers will find little to disagree with.”
–ForeWord Magazine

“Arden addresses problems that are at least worrisome, perhaps ominous, and that we ignore at our peril.”
–Noam Chomsky

“A damning indictment of our mass media's cynical exploitation of the crudest impulses in the human psyche.”
–Ben H. Bagdikian author, The Media Monopoly

“Arden is one of the millions who doesn't want what's oozing out of our TV screens. Fortunately for all of us, he's taken the time to explain why the system isn't working for all of us--and that we can do something about it.”
–Danny Schechter Executive Editor, The Media Channel

“Nothing short of an urgent wake-up call to sit up, take notice of and do something about the morally, intellectually and emotionally corrosive effect unchecked corporate power, operating overtly and covertly, has had over every aspect of our lives.”
–Montague Ullman, M.D.
