"Kabbalistic Panpsychism: The Enigma of Consciousness in Jewish Mystical Thought" by Hyman M. Schipper

"From a scientific and philosophical point of view, there is arguably no phenomenon as intractable as the origin and nature of consciousness. This volume provides a comprehensive account of the Kabbalistic understanding of consciousness adduced from ancient Jewish mystical texts and the writings of key sixteenth-twentieth century Kabbalistic and Chassidic luminaries."
