ABSTRACT

This paper focuses on practical issues regarding the quantum world, in a bid to unpack the inner logic of Nature. It analyses a few landmark experiments that raise tough conceptual challenges—yet do make good sense if we assume that quantum randomness is more than a sheer lack of determinism. Intriguingly, this assumption sheds new light on some of the conscious brain’s deepest secrets. It also suggests fresh insights as regards the meaning of life and our place in the universe.
