Conscious Mind in the Physical World (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

A lively account of quantum theory and its puzzles, Conscious Mind in the Physical World examines two developments that have altered the context of discussions about consciousness. One is computer technology, which allows us to make machines that can calculate at speeds far greater than the human brain, while the other is the study of the microscopic world. The book explores idealism, free will, and the relationship of consciousness to quantum mechanics. This resource will stimulate physicists with an interest in philosophy, philosophers interested in physics, and anyone fascinated about the waking state of the mind.
