## Abstract
The Orch OR theory attributes consciousness to “orchestrated” quantum computations in microtubules inside brain neurons. These terminate by Penrose objective reduction (OR), a process in the fine scale structure of the universe which introduces phenomenal experience and non-computability. Lattice polymers of tubulin proteins, microtubules organize intra-neuronal activities. The Penrose-Hameroff Orch OR theory suggests that microtubules 1) encode memory and process information, 2) orchestrate quantum vibrational superpositions (qubits) of pi electron resonance dipoles within tubulin which unify, entangle and 3) evolve to meet Orch OR threshold for full, rich conscious experience, most likely 4) in dendrites and soma of cortical layer 5 pyramidal neurons, and 5) selection of microtubule states which regulate axonal firings and behavior. Penrose has further described 6) retroactivity inherent in OR and Orch OR, which can resolve Libet’s backward time referral, and rescue conscious free will. Orch OR has explanatory power, and is testable and falsifiable.

备用描述
Consciousness and quantum mechanics are two great mysteries of our time--and recently scholars have postulated a deeper connection between them. Exploring this possible connection can be fruitful: an analysis of the conscious mind and psychophysical connection can be indispensable in understanding quantum mechanics and solving the notorious measurement problem, and there is also likely some kind of intimate connection between quantum mechanics--the most fundamental theory of the physical world--and our efforts to explain, naturalistically, the phenomenon of consciousness. The seventeen newly written chapters in this volume are divided into three sections: Consciousness and the Wave Function Collapse, Consciousness in Quantum Theories, and Quantum Approaches to Consciousness. This is the first volume to provide a comprehensive review and thorough analysis of intriguing conjectures about the connection between consciousness and quantum mechanics. Written by leading experts in physics, philosophy, and cognitive science, Consciousness and Quantum Mechanics will be of value to students and researchers working on the foundations of quantum mechanics and the philosophy of mind.

"Consciousness and quantum mechanics are two mysteries in our times. A careful and thorough examination of possible connections between them may help unravel these two mysteries. On the one hand, an analysis of the conscious mind and psychophysical connection seems indispensable in understanding quantum mechanics and solving the notorious measurement problem. On the other hand, it seems that in the end quantum mechanics, the most fundamental theory of the physical world, will be relevant to understanding consciousness and even solving the mind-body problem when assuming a naturalist view. This book is the first volume which provides a comprehensive review and thorough analysis of intriguing conjectures about the connection between consciousness and quantum mechanics. Written by leading experts in this research field, this book will be of value to students and researchers working on the foundations of quantum mechanics and philosophy of mind"-- Provided by publisher
