Abstract or Description

The issue had its inception in London after Alfredo Pereira Jr. stayed for six months as Visiting Researcher at Goldsmiths University of London and gave an Alfred North Whitehead lecture there on his work on sentience. During this lecture, he briefly speculated on the implications of his work for medical practice and this led to a recommendation that he attend a conference on Disorders of Consciousness (cited in his work here) that alerted him to the need to stimulate discussion on this topic as reported here in this special issue.
