I have major issues explaining why i think that but somehow it fits my model.
When thinking of consciousness as a feedback loop, stuff sort of makes sense. I have been unable to poke holes in the theory but also unable to add strength to it.
Related: meditation (at least some kinds) seems to operate by turning the subjective awareness back onto itself, becoming aware of becoming aware of... etc... A little like a camera hooked up to a monitor that it's pointed at, you get an infinite regression.
In the camera-monitor system there is a physical loop of information from the lens-to-screen-to-lens-to...
When you do it with you awareness, there must be something looping somewhere, regardless of the physicality or otherwise of consciousness, eh?
Then this book sounds like it's not worth reading. There is absolutely no need to invoke pseudo-quantum mumbo-jumbo to investigate consciousness. We don't understand the chemical operation of neurons well enough to say whether quantum effects are necessary for neural functioning (although they probably aren't). Most "quantum-looking" (i.e. obviously non-classical) processes happen at much smaller space and energy scales than the chemical processes we know are involved in cognition.
Quantum entanglement almost certainly isn't involved because it can't be used to transmit information and it requires high degrees of precision to make use of in the first place.
The brain's thermal noise floor is vastly larger than the scale of most "interesting" quantum effects.
Well technically you will be conscious, but the meaning/description of conscious in your head wont fit what it actually is.
