Synopsis :

Shadows of the Mind: A Search for the Missing Science of Consciousness

Revue de presse:

"Penrose has come closer than anyone to a rigorous discussion of the most intriguing problems of all: what are we? How do we think? And what is it that makes us human?" (The Times)

"Clearly the product of a brilliant mind" (Times Literary Supplement)

"His book may be the first accessible report to a general readership about the site, if not the actual substance, of the holy grail of consciousness - the precise point where quantum activity interacts with classical physical activity in the brain... His passionate attempt at popular exposition lends importance to a debate that he believes too crucial to be left to the specialists alone" (Sunday Times)
