My personal opinion - no, it would take far too long; this is of course far from a simple issue. However, if you want your thoughts provoked, read a recent Guardian article on the issue of whether all the amazing findings now constantly coming out from brain imaging studies answer the age-old question of whether we have free will (or indeed whether they have any relevance to the question at all). In contrast (and more to the point, I feel) , you can read some comments from Gerald Edelman on consciousness.

And in an interesting new study of expertise, a researcher has found that novice chess players were more likely to convince themselves that bad moves would work out in their favor (because they focused more on the countermoves that would benefit their strategy while ignoring those that led to the downfall of their cherished hypotheses), while chess masters tended to correctly predict when the eventual outcome of a move would weaken their position. "Grand masters think about what their opponents will do much more. They tend to falsify their own hypotheses."
