The author explores the pre-reflective dimension of consciousness, that stratum of lived experience that escapes conceptual representation and the normative typifications of science. Through a rigorous analysis, it is demonstrated how disciplines such as neuroscience fail in their attempt to exclusively capture the richness of experience, proposing instead a necessary interdisciplinary dialogue as the only way to understand the original horizon of meaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book delves into the insufficiency of the contemporary scientific paradigm for studying human experience in its totality. The author maintains that there exists a fundamental stratum of lived experience, a pre-reflective horizon, that resists being captured by the experimental methods and laws that govern current science. It is argued that neuroscience, by arrogating to itself the exclusive right to study experience, fails repeatedly in its attempt. The proposed solution is not to abandon science, but to foster an interdisciplinary dialogue that allows access to that horizon of original meaning, integrating perspectives from philosophy, art theory, and epistemology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Topics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritique of scientific reductionism in the study of consciousness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe pre-reflective dimension of human experience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe limits of neuroscience in explaining subjectivity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe need for an interdisciplinary dialogue between science, philosophy, and art.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe metaphysics and ontology of experience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is aimed at readers interested in the philosophy of mind, epistemology, and the critique of scientism.
