That is an inordinately peculiar kind of implication which prompts the question What particular properties distinguish these brain processes and enable them to produce the manifestation Can we guess which material processes have this power which not Or simpler What kind of material process is directly associated with consciousness A rationalist may be inclined to deal curtly with this question roughly as follows.
