David Rosenthal

David Rosenthal is a philosopher known for his work on consciousness and the philosophy of mind, particularly advocating for "panpsychism," the view that consciousness is a fundamental aspect of all matter. He explores how mental and physical phenomena relate, suggesting that consciousness might be a basic feature present throughout the universe, not limited to humans or animals. His ideas challenge traditional notions that consciousness only arises from complex brain activity, offering a broader perspective on the nature of mind and existence.
