His PhD is from MIT, and he's been a full professor at UC Irvine for 25+ years, publishing pretty continuously. Lots of papers online.

He didn't study physics but "Computational Psychology."(1) And sadly it shows: Everything "quantum" he mentions in the article is simply invalid, easy to see for anybody with enough knowledge of physics. Quantum randomness occurs on different scales than where he tries to involve it. Where he doesn't involve "quantum" the claims sound better. The sad part is that he certainly had the chance to consult with the physicists. Why he haven't had, of if he had, why he ignored it, I don't know. 1) http://cogsci.uci.edu/~ddhoff/media/pdf/donald-hoffman-vita.pdf http://cogsci.uci.edu/~ddhoff/media/pdf/donald-hoffman-vita....
