Cognition and consciousness are not easily separable. Some psychology and neuroscience publications that I found particularly good: Gibson (1950), Ittelson (1973), Kosslyn (2005), Northoff (2004) ("Mind–body problem"), Dewey, & Bentley (1949). Particularly the first and last should get you started. [1]: Gibson, J. J. (1950). The perception of the visual world. Boston: Houghton Mifflin [2]: Ittelson, W.H. (1973). Environment and Cognition.
