The book follows a multidisciplinary scientific survey of the process by which life produces mind. The notion of proto-mind, an intermediate stage between matter and full conceptualizing mind is fully developed. A critique of the current mechanistic scientific philosophical approach leads to a meta-mechanistic, ecological alternative approach to proto-mind, based on organism experience. The process of experience is variously described as biological, quantum physical, information theoretic, anthropological, and philosophical. An important tool is an extensive glossary which serves to familiarlize the reader with the new ideas.
