The Remembered Present - A Biological Theory of Consciousness[1] is a 1989 book by Gerald M. Edelman that proposes his core vision of how cognition and consciousness arise and operate in vertebrates and mammals.

The book, Neural Darwinism, is the third in a trilogy of books[2][3][1] that Edelman wrote to delineate the scope and breadth of his ideas on how a biological theory of consciousness and animal body plan evolution could be developed in a bottom-up fashion. In accordance with principles of population biology and Darwin's theory of Natural Selection - as opposed to the top-down algorithmic and computational approaches that dominated a nascent cognitive psychology at the time.
