Panpsychism and Panprotopsychism
I present an argument for panpsychism: the thesis that everything is conscious, or at least that fundamental physical entities are conscious. The argument takes a Hegelian dialectical form.

In particular, the key premises of the causal argument for materialism and the conceivability argument for dualis...
متن کاملSynapses, Quantum Theory and Panpsychism
The introduction situates the ‘hard problem’ in its historical context and argues that the problem has two sides: the output side (the Kant-Eccles problem of the freedom of the Will) and the input side (the problem of qualia).

The argument is also subtle and intricate. So let’s spend some tim...
