#13 Panpsychism: Is the Universe Conscious? - Dr Philip Goff

Is the Universe Conscious?

In this episode, I host Dr Philip Goff, an Assistant Professor at the University of Durham. We talk about panpsychism, the theory that consciousness is a fundamental feature of the physical world, and its implications for science and philosophy, through the views of Bertrand Russell and Arthur Eddington. Further, we talk about the relation between panpsychism and evolution and make a distinction between qualitative and quantitative aspects of physical objects, discussing Philip’s latest book, Galileo's error.
