Quantum information and consciousness : a gentle introduction
Georgiev, Danko D.
Quantum information and consciousness : a gentle introduction - Boca Raton : CRC Press, 2019. - xvii, 344 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 283-318) and index.
This book addresses the fascinating cross-disciplinary field of quantum information theory applied to the study of brain function. It offers a self-study guide to probe the problems of consciousness, including a concise but rigorous introduction to classical and quantum information theory, theoretical neuroscience, and philosophy of the mind. It aims to address long-standing problems related to consciousness within the framework of modern theoretical physics in a comprehensible manner that elucidates the nature of the mind-body relationship. The reader also gains an overview of methods for constructing and testing quantum informational theories of consciousness.
