Irving Krakow

Why the Mind-Body Problem Cannot Be Solved!

Some Final Conclusions in the Philosophy of Mind

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In Why the Mind-Body Problem CANNOT Be Solved, Irving Krakow shows that a satisfactory scientific explanation of conscious experience isn't possible for methodological and semantic reasons. The reason is that sentences about conscious experience cannot be deduced from sentences about the brain's neurology without using brain-mind correlations.
