    "abstract": "The most dramatic developments in theoretical physics in the next millennium\nare likely to come when we make progress on so far unresolved foundational\nquestions. In this essay I consider two of the deepest problems confronting us,\nthe measurement problem in quantum theory and the problem of relating\nconsciousness to the rest of physics. I survey some recent promising ideas on\npossible solutions to the measurement problem and explain what a proper\nphysical understanding of consciousness would involve and why it would need new\nphysics.",
