I agree with mark. An interesting book to read regarding conciousness is
"The origin of conciousness in the breakdown of bicamaral mind" by
Julian Jaynes. Although I may not agree fully with his thesis, it did
get me thinking and questioning about the usual ideas regarding
conciousness.

An analogy regarding conciousness, "emotions are like the roots of a
plant, while conciousness is the fruit".
