The classic modern statement of the dual-aspect monist approach to the mind/body relation in which mind and body are viewed as different aspects of one and the same series of psychophysical events. In arguing that mental and physical terms are not intertranslatable, Lewes transferred the domain of mind/body discourse from metaphysics to scientific language and provided psychology with what is still the best argument against extreme reductionism and the replacement of psychology by physiology.
