What does mathematics have to do with awareness? Are different kinds of awareness related? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Awareness” is commonly spoken of as “mind, soul, spirit, consciousness, the unconscious, psyche, imagination, self, and other.” \u003cem\u003eThe Phenomena of Awareness\u003c\/em\u003e is a study of awareness as it is directly experienced.  From the start, Cecile T. Tougas engages the reader in reflective notice of awareness as it appears from moment to moment in a variety of ways. The book draws us in and asks us to focus on the flow of phenomena in living experience, not as a theoretical construct, nor an image, nor a biochemical product, but instead as phases, moments, or parts that cannot exist without one another. Tougas shows how these parts exist in mutual dependence as a continuum of awareness, as the flow of lived time, and how noticing time deepens psychological self-understanding and understanding of another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Phenomena of Awareness\u003c\/em\u003e is divided into four parts: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Seeking and Noticing Awareness\u003cbr\u003e• Observing and Understanding  the Flow of Phenomena\u003cbr\u003e• Distinguishing Intentional Acts\u003cbr\u003e• Work in Progress\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on the work of E.
