Quanta and Mind

Essays on the Connection between Quantum Mechanics and Consciousness

Ebook (PDF Format)

This edited volume examines aspects of the mind/consciousness that are relevant to the interpretations of quantum mechanics. In it, an international group of contributors focus on the possible connections between quantum mechanics and consciousness. They look at how consciousness can help us with quantum mechanics as well as how quantum mechanics can contribute to our understanding of consciousness. For example, what do different interpretations aimed at solving the measurement problem in quantum mechanics tell us about the nature of consciousness, such as von Neumann's interpretation? Each interpretation has, associated to it, a correspondin… Mehr

Über den Autor


J. Acacio de Barros is a physicist working on the foundations of quantum mechanics, philosophy of physics, and psychology. His interests are interdisciplinary, and focus mainly on different formalisms to describe contextual systems, both in quantum mechanics and areas outside of physics, such as in decision-making and psychology. Dr. de Barros has held visiting positions at the Institute for Mathematical Studies in the Social Sciences (Stanford University), Center for the Study of Language and Information (Stanford University), and at the Interdisciplinary Logic Group at COPPE (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), and is currently Professor at the School of Humanities and Liberal Studies, San Francisco State University. Dr. de Barros is a Corresponding Member of the Brazilian Academy of Philosophy. Carlos Montemayor is Professor of Philosophy at San Francisco State University. He is the author of Minding Time: A Philosophical and Theoretical Approach to the Psychology of Time (2013; Brill), Consciousness, Attention, and Conscious Attention (with H. H. Haladjian, 2015; MIT Press) and Knowledge, Dexterity, and Attention: A Theory of Epistemic Agency (with Abrol Fairweather, 2017; Cambridge University Press).
