{"product_id":"rich-experience-and-sparse-awareness-ariel-meir-berlinger-9781009757102","title":"Rich Experience and Sparse Awareness: Sensing More Than We Know","description":"Consciousness is often treated as unitary phenomenon. We challenge this and propose a framework that parses it into two functionally distinct representational media. Reviewing dominant theories, as well as studies of perceptual failures, neural activity, visual search and attention - we argue that phenomenal experience arises early as a detailed, analogue, and relatively generic representation of the physical world. Awareness, a later and more idiosyncratic representation of the world, results from enriching phenomenal experience via relevance-filtered semantic knowledge. This Multi-Representational Media (MRM) account unifies perception, memory, and cognition, reconciles rich and sparse consciousness views, and reframes concepts in unconscious cognition research.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ariel Meir Berlinger,Baruch Eitam\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1009757105\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781009757102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/23\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"Ariel Meir Berlinger","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":49097270886655,"sku":"9781009757102","price":77.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rich-experience-and-sparse-awareness-ariel-meir-berlinger-9781009757102","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
