Abstract
The article demonstrates the ability of the science of consciousness to offer solutions to scientific problems that are unsolvable in other fields of knowledge. The problem chosen for this demonstration is the relationship between the brain (usually considered a part of the physical world) and consciousness (which is not something physical). This choice can be considered random given the variety of philosophical and scientific questions that can only be answered through the science of consciousness.
