That's practically word-for-word the description of the book I've always given. "We don't understand consciousness, and we don't understand quantum mechanics, ergo...."
It's a pity, because that was those books were my first and only experience of Penrose for many years, and it was only much later that I learned of his much more interesting work in geometry and mathematics, and their use in physics, the study of crystals, etc.
