Our sense of consciousness and being is not illusory, but cannot be explained by neuroscience. What explains it: materialism? dualism? panpsychism? None of the above?

Raymond Tallis:
We are not now and never will be able to account for the mind in terms of neural activity.
The mind is not a computer
Rejects the claim that intentionality can be instantiated in a brain. Neurons firing aren't 'about anything'.
'If one is seeking the origin of human distinctiveness, the brain is the wrong place to look. Our distinctiveness stems from a shared space of meaning opened by the thumb, posture, pointing, and language'
Is a non-dualist, sympathetic to a roughly 'extended mind' approach in which the social sphere, tools and environment all somehow co-constitute the mind.
