As James W. noted‚ ‘Consciousness‚ however small‚ is an illegitimate birth in any philosophy that starts without it‚ and yet professes to explain all facts by continuous evolution.’ So if someone assumes that newborn babies are conscious in some sense at birth‚ then it is possible to account for subsequent changes of consciousness.
