Description

Matter and Mind: A Philosophical Inquiry explores two fundamental questions that have shaped both science and philosophy: what constitutes matter, and what defines mind? This volume, part of the Boston Studies in the Philosophy and History of Science series (volume 287), bridges the historical divide between idealism and materialism by examining key concepts across physics, relativity, quantum mechanics, and thermodynamics. The work provides an encyclopaedic survey of scientific theories and their philosophical implications, drawing on rigorous analysis of how physicists and philosophers have understood the nature of physical reality and consciousness throughout history. Whether you approach these questions from a scientific or philosophical background, this book offers a comprehensive examination of the evidence and arguments that continue to shape our understanding of matter and mind.
