Publications

The easiest way to find my peer-reviewed physics papers is the University of Warwick repository, WRAP. For a wider list, the eprint arxiv is a good source. My papers on the mind body problem are available from my profile in the philosophy database philpeople. The work tackles the biggest problems in science, spanning 30 years. The long duration is not just because it is so difficult, but because my full time role was administrative rather than research. The papers are explained and set in context in Explaining quantum theory and models of the mind. A short introduction to each paper is given below….
