If we are to explain consciousness, at some point our explanation must come down to:
...thus X happens and, as we now see, full conscious experience must follow.
So we need to establish what X is, and what universal principles it relies on to make this work.
In this text we systematically and logically reverse-engineer and reconstruct the phenomena that make up consciousness. This approach involves a synthesis of physics and philosophy because, as the title suggests, we dig as deep as the quantum level to offer a solution to the traditional mind-body problem.
[This is the 2025 updated edition. A bonus first chapter reproduces an article that refutes the oft-heard claim that digital AIs can be conscious]
