Consciousness DVDs
I bought this set of five DVDs, totaling nine hours of interviews with 20 different scientists on the topic of consciousness, and I must say, although I've just started watching it, I'm really impressed. It's just talking-heads interviews, with a guy asking (really well informed) questions, but, so far, it's great. And at US$29.95, it's a bargain. The director is Greg Alsbury.
Also, the telephone support at Discover This (the vendor) was the most polite, friendly, and patient I think I've ever had from any vendor (I had a small problem getting the website to tell me how much shipping for my order from Canada would be; turned out to be US$8, and the order came through without being stopped by Customs).
