What Hoffman builds towards over the course of ten chapters is, in short, the following idea: there is no objective material reality, and certainly not one creating consciousness. But that is not what Hoffman means, he takes his idea much further than that. ![]() By now, we understand that the colours human eyes can perceive are only a sliver of the electromagnetic spectrum, with many animals observing other parts of that spectrum, and we know that many animals can hear and communicate in infra- and ultrasound.
