Neurology And Metaphysics (1905)

By Charles McCormick

Book Overview

Neurology and Metaphysics is a book written by Charles McCormick and first published in 1905. The book explores the relationship between the human brain and the metaphysical aspects of human existence. McCormick, a neurologist and philosopher, argues that the brain is the physical foundation for all human experience, including consciousness, perception, and thought. He suggests that the brain is not only responsible for processing sensory information but also for creating the subjective experiences that make up human consciousness. McCormick also delves into the philosophical implications of his neuroscientific findings, exploring the nature of reality, free will, and the existence of the soul. He argues that the physical processes of the brain do not necessarily preclude the existence of a metaphysical realm, but rather provide a foundation for it. Overall, Neurology and Metaphysics is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between science and philosophy, and a pioneering work in the field of neurophilosophy. It remains relevant to contemporary discussions in neuroscience and philosophy of mind.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
