Phenomenological theory based on simple concepts related to human cognition
is introduced. These concepts are directly related to neurophysiological
brain events but may also be extended to explain higher cognitive functions
realized by the mind. This theory on the one hand solves fundamental
problems in cognitive sciences, explaining puzzling behavior of human
conscious experience, and on the other hand leads to useful models of mind
in form of neurofuzzy systems. Such systems can compete in pattern
recognition and classification tasks with neural networks and can compete in
reasoning tasks with the expert systems.
