Zoltan Torey (1928–2014) was a clinical psychologist and philosopher of mind. Largely self-taught as a philosopher, Torey lived a life for which the word “eventful” barely seems appropriate. His family spent six weeks hiding in a coal cellar at the end of World War II. In the years following the war, when Hungary was part of the Soviet empire, he saw his father arrested as a “liberal subversive,” prompting him to make a daring escape past Soviet snipers in 1948. He emigrated to Melbourne soon after. While working at a battery plant in 1951 his face was sprayed with acid, blinding him for the rest of his life. In 1999 Torey published his major work The Crucible of Consciousness.
