Galen Strawson has been on the front line of the battlefield on the topic of panpsychism since the 1990s. This new edition of this seminal book (originally published in 2006) contains several new postscripts on the topic of panpsychism, and Strawson's 'realistic monism' in particular.
For the last five years philosopher Galen Strawson has provoked a mixture of shock and scepticism with his carefully argued case that physicalism entails panpsychism. In this book Strawson provides the fullest and most careful statement of his position to date.
This volume, originally a special issue of the Journal of Consciousness Studies, uses the recent writings of Philip Goff as a jumping-off point for discussions of panpsychism — the idea that consciousness is a fundamental and pervasive aspect of our universe that cannot be understood in other, more basic, terms.
