A great popular works is by Consciousness Explained by Daniel Dennett

And one of the most technical and academic of works I've read is by a University of Toronto professor with training in biology and philosophy, Evan Thompson: Mind in Life

Thompson's work has greatly influenced me. In fact, many of my conceptions and theories that I am building within the framework of my Ph.D. application to the Global Brain Institute comes from Thompson's assertion that mind and life are intimately (fundamentally) connected. I agree.
