Summary: Interesting, Complex, and Insightful
Comment: I found this book incredibly interesting...as well as linguistically arduous. Avery has a daedal idea of consciousness and dimensionality. His unique views have definitely impacted my hardcore empirical, materialistic philosophy persona. I highly recommend this book to those who are well read in the subject already and semantically sound.
Though I did not understand his entire argument (and will undoubtedly have to read it again and again to reach some sort of "complete" understanding), I found this read worth every second I gave it! My only complaints would be his lack of clarity at times...it was difficult to visualize his argument, but with effort, is possible.
...Awesome, awesome ideas...wow

Summary: As the title implies, a "structure" of consciousness
Comment: Being well trained in Quantum Relativity some years ago, I am no stranger to Quantum Physics nor Relativity. Consciousness was always a main topic for me as well. I found this book to be consistent with science and philosophy. It is a well presented argument for what the title implies, a structure of consciousness. However; it leaves the age old difficult problem of what consciousness is unaddressed. Perhaps rightly so. Anyone who would profess to know what consciousness is, would be a fool or a liar in my opinion. The "hard" problem of consciousness remains the "hard" problem. However, how it functions without referring to what it is, is well described in this book.
Many without a good background in quantum theory and relativity would find the scientific explanations perhaps too difficult to understand or appreciate. But, if you want an explanation of how consciousness works, and you are willing to understand the physics of it, I recommend this book.
I have also studied and tried many things in this world, and oddly enough, the author's conclusions are quit similar to some of Scientology's main anxioms. This may sound surprising to many, however, truth comes from many sources, not one.
The origin of consciousness and mankind, remain what they are, our great mystery. To fool oneself into believing one knows all, is just that, foolishness. Let that be my words of wisdom to scientists and scientologists alike. However, if you accept what physics has discovered and accept that you are a conscious being (perhaps spirit if I may use the word), you will find the explanations very interesting, bordering upon "the truth".

Summary: A New Approach To The Basis of Everything
Comment: This book leads beyond the basic immateriality of the universe as posited by particle physics and quantum mechanics. His thesis is that consciousness is the basis of everything and he has an interesting theory of dimensionality in its various ramifications. Most of the books on modern physics do not explore any theory of consciousness at all, so this one is a refreshing and interesting change. I recommend it highly to all those
interested in philosophy and physics.
