Phrenology was among the first attempts to correlate mental functions with specific parts of the brain. Philosophy of mind is a branch of modern analytic philosophy that studies the nature of the mind mental events mental functions mental properties ... consciousness and their relationship to the physical body, particularly the brain. The mind-body problem , i.e. the relationship of the mind to the body, is commonly seen as the central issue in philosophy of mind, although there are other issues concerning the nature of the mind that do not involve its relation to the physical body. Dualism and monism are the two major schools of thought that attempt to resolve the mind-body problem. Dualism can be traced back to Plato Aristotle and the Sankhya and Yoga schools of Hindu philosophy, but it was most precisely formulated by René Descartes in the 17th century. Substance Dualists argue that the mind is an independently existing substance, whereas Property Dualists maintain that the mind is a group of independent properties that emerge from and cannot be reduced to the brain, but that it is not a distinct substance.

   Extractions: MWF 1:25-2:15, G3 Keezell Hall Course Description: In this course, we will explore some of the major issues and debates in recent philosophy of mind, and examine the foundations of the newly evolving interdisciplinary approach to the mind called “cognitive science.” We will begin with the traditional mind-body problem and examine several modern attempts to solve it. After an introduction to the problem of intentionality, we will examine at some length the computational theory of mind, which is the dominant approach in cognitive science. Next, we will turn to the issues surrounding the role of mental content in psychological explanation. Finally, we will consider a hot topic in contemporary philosophy of mind: the mystery of consciousness. In particular, we will be interested in the plausibility of finding a place for consciousness in the world described by physical theory. Helping us in our formulations of these problems will be the use of fantastic thought experiments. The hope is that through careful reflection on our intuitions, we may appreciate the depth of our philosophical commitments and respond maturely to challenges posed to them.

   Extractions: Unfolding Bodymind : Exploring Possibility Through Education by Hocking, Haskell, Linds Volume Three of the Foundations of Holistic Education Series U nfolding Bodymind Inspired by several streams of unconventional thinkingBuddhism, phenomenology, the holistic biology of Francisco Varela and Humberto Maturana, and an exquisite ecological sensibility such as that in David Abram's work ( The Spell of the Sensuous )the authors construct a strong philosophical foundation for a holistic understanding of knowing, teaching, and learning. To express their unfamiliar insights, many of them play with conventional language to make it serve a more holistic, relational view of the world. For example, the editors replace "understanding" with the term "interstanding"; several authors insert poetry and free verse into their essays; words are sometimes broken up with parentheses or slashes to emphasize their root meanings or their ambiguity. This book challenges the reader to step out of the linear, overly rational discourse that has conditioned our worldview.

Hyponoetics postulates a new mode of thinking - Paranoesis or Transrational Thinking - that enables us to access any information in the universe. Hyponoetics is NOT a religious or spiritual philosophy, but, on the contrary, advocates principles of rationality (critical thinking), philosophical atheism, humanism, and science. For a short synoptic view on Hyponoetics go to the Introduction section. A more profound elaboration of my philosophy can be found in the Essays section.

    Extractions: Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free First published Mon Sep 22, 1997; substantive revision Tue Oct 9, 2007 But Leibniz has much to say about the philosophy of mind that goes well beyond these traditionally important topics. Perhaps surprisingly, his system sometimes contains ideas of relevance even to contemporary discussions in the cognitive sciences. More generally, he discusses in depth the nature of perception and thought (conscious and unconscious), and of human motivation and striving (or, as he would say, appetition). We will take up such topics in what follows. Most of Leibniz's arguments against materialism are directly aimed at the thesis that perception and consciousness can be given mechanical (i.e. physical) explanations. His position is that perception and consciousness cannot possibly be explained mechanically, and, hence, could not be physical processes. His most famous argument against the possibility of materialism is found in section 17 of the
