Yes, Virginia, Consciousness Goes All the Way Down. But Does It Go All the Way Up?

Although the apparent confirmation of the Higgs Boson, the so-called God particle, has been attracting attention recently, the most vexing problem in science and philosophy remains the mind-body problem: What relation is there between material brain states and conscious, first-person experience?
