This book is about structural relations between phenomenological and neurophysiological aspects of consciousness and time. Focusing on auditory perception and making new and updated use of Leibniz and Husserl, it investigates the transition from unconscious to conscious states, especially with regard to the constitution of phenomenal time.

Norman Sieroka received a Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Heidelberg, Germany, working in auditory research and on the neurophysiology of time perception. He earned an M.Phil. in History and Philosophy of Science from the University of Cambridge, and both a Ph.D. and Habilitation in Philosophy at the ETH Zurich, where he is currently employed as a senior researcher.
