The Physical Basis of Mind: Being the Second Series of Problems of Life and MindGood Press, 19 nov 2019 - 2374 pagina's The author of "The Physical Basis of Mind," George Lewes, was a strong proponent of the theory that mind and body coexist in the living organism and the philosophical truth that all knowledge of objects implies a knowing subject. In other words, he suggests that the mind and body are viewed as different aspects of the same series of psychophysical events. "The Physical Basis of Mind" is the third book on the topic, focusing on the writer's views on organic activities. |
