Can Physics Solve Consciousness?
Physics writer George Musser will discuss his new book “Putting Ourselves Back in the Equation,” a deep dive into physicists’ efforts to show how mind emerges from matter. Physicist and bestselling author Carlo Rovelli calls Musser’s book “a delightful account of one of the deepest and most fascinating explorations going on today at the frontier of our knowledge.”
