• Preface.- Introduction to States of Consciousness.- Disorders of Consciousness: Coma, Vegetative State and Minimally Conscious States.- 2 Codons of Consciousness: Neurological Characteristics of Ordinary and Pathological States of Consciousness.- Dream Consciousness and Sleep Physiology.- Dream Therapy: Correlation of Dream Contents with Encephalographic and Cardiovascular Activations.- The Substrate That Dreams Are Made On: An Evaluation of Current Neurobiological Theories of Dreaming; J.L. Dawson, R. Conduit.-Sleep Onset Process as an Altered State of Consciousness.- Brain Rate as an Indicator of the Level of Consciousness.- On Physiological Bases of States of Expanded Consciousness.- States of Consciousness Beyond Waking, Dreaming and Sleeping: Perspectives from Research on Meditation Experiences.-Ethno Therapy, Music and Trance – An Investigation into a Sound-Trance Induction.- States of Consciousness Redefines as Patterns of Phenomenal Properties: An Experimental Application.-

From the reviews: "This collection of research studies the intricate nature of human consciousness, focusing on the waking state; the different stages of sleep; dreaming; and meditation. This comprehensive reference proves vital to the work of neuroscientists, neurologists, biomedical engineers and clinical psychologists, in addition to religious, philosophical and educational professionals."
