I would like references to books or articles that argue the
following position:
	"The enigma of consciousness is profound but the basis for it
	is very mundane. Consciousness reduces to sensation;
	sensation reduces to measurement of nervous events;
	nervous events are physical events. Since physical events can
	obviously occur in `inanimate matter', so can consciousness."

References to very recent articles are my main objective here,
but old works (ie pre-computer age) would be helpful also.
