Consciousness is fundamental, so argues physicist, engineer, and inventor of the first commercial microprocessor, Federico Faggin. Drawing on quantum physics and information theory, he argues for his outspoken view: quantum information panpsychism, which argues quantum fields are conscious, have free will, and an inherent drive to know themselves. With 20th-century quantum physicists Schrödinger and Planck also arguing consciousness is fundamental, come and witness this view's latest proponent among physicists.

"Relentlessly inventive." — Terry Grimwood
