I recommend the book: Brain and the Inner World by M. Solms and O. Turnbull. You'll find fascinating and clear explanations regarding the brain-mind questions as well as a highly possible answer to the 'hard' problem of consciousness which I hope will surprise you in a postive way. They've put it in these few hundred pages, even less if you choose only particular chapters dealing with consciousness, in such a way that any interpretatation of mine wouldn't be appropriate. Please do find time to read it if you're genuinely interested in the topic, I guarantee no regrets. Fascinating piece of writing, even though it's been 10+ years since its publishing - still holds on strongly.
