The guy's basically just taken some thoughts from 18th and 19th German philosophers, taken some well-known topics from quantum mechanics, and made the claim that reality is created by consciousness and written a book for public consumption based on that.
I mean, the guy's done no physics. There's no math. There are know scientific articles. He doesn't actually explain anything about the natural world or provide any real evidence or propose any experiments.
It's just a load of woo woo mumbo jumbo that might sound scientific to scientifically illiterate types by include quantum mechanics terms like "Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle" and "subatomic particles."
There are truckloads of this nonsense and they always love terms from quantum mechanics without having anything to do with real quantum mechanics.
