text: Eliminative materialism and illusionism have been the subject of criticism within the popular press. One 
  highly cited example comes from the philosopher Galen Strawson who wrote an article in the New York 
  Review of Books titled "The Consciousness Deniers". In it, Strawson describes illusionism as the "silliest 
  claim ever made", next to which "every known religious belief is only a little less sensible than the belief 
  that the grass is green."[85] Another notable example comes from Christof Koch (a neuroscientist and one 
  of the leading proponents of Integrated Information Theory) in his popular science book*The Feeling of*
  *Life Itself*. In the early pages of the book, Koch describes eliminativism as the "metaphysical counterpart 
  to Cotard's syndrome, a psychiatric condition in which patients deny being alive."[86] Koch takes the 
  prevalence of eliminativism as evidence that "much of twentieth-century analytic philosophy has gone to 
  the dogs".[87]
