Philip Goff: Panpsychism as a Theory of Consciousness
Manage episode 455161041 series 2975159
Episode 141
I spoke with Professor Philip Goff about:
* What a “post-Galilean” science of consciousness looks like
* How panpsychism helps explain consciousness and the hybrid cosmopsychist view
Enjoy!
Philip Goff is a British author, idealist philosopher, and professor at Durham University whose research focuses on philosophy of mind and consciousness. Specifically, it focuses on how consciousness can be part of the scientific worldview. He is the author of multiple books including Consciousness and Fundamental Reality, Galileo's Error: Foundations for a New Science of Consciousness and Why? The Purpose of the Universe.
