| Key findings | Argues that the evolutionary origins of the human brain and of consciousness become clearer as successive branches of the evolutionary tree are uncovered, and presents a literature-based synthesis of how the brain and consciousness took shape, incorporating embryological evidence. |
Abstract
Özet: Dünyanın oluşumundan bu yana karmaşık işlemler gerçekleştirebilen insan beynine nasıl ulaştık? Kendi farkındalığımızı nasıl oluşturduk? Tüm bunların cevabı; evrim ağacının her bir dalı keşfedildikçe yavaş da olsa açıklığa kavuşmaktadır. Bu derlemede günümüze kadar beynin ve bilincin nasıl şekillendiği konusu literatürdeki makalelerden toplanan bilimsel veriler eşliğinde ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır. ANAHTAR KELİMELER: Beyin, bilinç, evrim, embriyoloji. EVOLUTION of THE BRAIN AND CONSCIOUSNESS Abstract: Since formation of the world, how did we get a human brain which can perform complex operations? How did we create our own awareness? The answer to all of this; as each branch of the tree of evolution is being discovered, albeit slowly becomes cleared in front of the eyes. On the light of the scientific data collected from the literature, this review presents the issue of how the brain and consciousness shaped. KEYWORDS: Brain, consciousness, evolution, embryology.
