Description

Explore the fundamental connection between physical reality and consciousness in Matter and Mind: A Philosophical Inquiry. Part of the Boston Studies in the Philosophy and History of Science series, this volume addresses two of the most difficult questions in science and philosophy: What is matter? and What is mind? As the long-standing debate between idealists and materialists continues, this book seeks to find common ground between these two extremes. The text provides a wide-ranging survey of key ideas in physics and various conceptions of matter. Readers will find detailed explorations of theories of relativity, quantum physics, and thermodynamics. This work serves as an encyclopaedic survey of concepts, theories, and their history. It is a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in the history and philosophy of science, offering a deep look into how our understanding of the physical world shapes our understanding of the mind.
