Do you have an intuition, an idea of what consciousness can be?

I do not. It is clearly some higher level interaction that is hard to understand one neuron at a time.
In your books, especially in Warped Passages and Knocking on Heaven’ s Door, you show the wonderful ability of explaining the most complicated mysteries of physics to the general public. How do you do it?

Thank you. It is hard work in fact. I enjoy challenges and I respect my readers. If they want to understand something they are entitled to and it is up to me to break it down in an understandable( and hopefully interesting and entertaining) way. I view it as a creative challenge in fact and I also give it to lots of patient people who have read earlier less finished versions. By the way, those are my only two books, aside from a short ebook about the Higgs boson!
