I really enjoyed reading this. Highly recommend for a new view of the world that challenges perceptions. It's a theme that has been present in other areas of my life. I think I encountered Craig thru the Tim Ferris podcast . Tom also spoke more recently to Philip Goff (about pan psychiam among other things) and a speaker at our recent conference at work was Arran Stibbe who speaks from a related viewpoint. All with strong conviction of consciousness being fundamental, to some extent shared and in every living thing.
