Inhaltsangabe
Explore the big question of mind and body and discover how three major theories shape science, thought, and everyday life. This book surveys interactionism, automatism, and parallelism, asking what really ties consciousness to the brain and why it matters for physics, biology, and philosophy.
In clear, probing terms, it analyzes how each view handles causation, the role of consciousness, and the search for a satisfying ultimate theory. It also discusses how our understanding of perception, reality, and meaning changes when we examine mind and matter together rather than apart.
- Learn how three competing theories explain or deny mind–body causation.
- See how these ideas touch physics, biology, and the study of perception.
- Explore the debate between naive realism, idealism, and monistic approaches.
- Consider proposed reconciliations that aim to preserve both efficiency of mind and scientific causality.
Ideal for readers curious about the foundations of mind, brain, and experience, especially those interested in philosophy of mind and cognitive science.

Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex relationship between mind and body, a question that has captivated philosophers and scientists for centuries. The author delves into the age-old debate about whether the mind acts upon the body, or vice versa, or if both simply exist in a state of parallel, non-causal association. This book presents a comprehensive and nuanced analysis of the evidence, drawing on empirical observations and philosophical reasoning to argue that consciousness is inextricably linked to physical processes, particularly those of the brain. The author meticulously examines various facts that seem to suggest action of mind on body, action of body on mind, and dependence of mind on body, ultimately demonstrating that the relationship is far more intimate and complex than previously thought. Ultimately, this book offers a compelling argument for the inseparability of the mind and the body, challenging conventional notions about their distinct nature.
