Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book reassesses the nature of the human mind or 'Soul'. The author contends that the prevailing psychological tendency disregards the existence of a permanent spiritual subject or substratum, reducing the mind to a succession of transient mental states that disintegrate as quickly as they arise. The author challenges this view, arguing that it is incapable of explaining essential aspects of consciousness, such as memory, personal identity, and the sense of self. The book delves into historical materialist theories of the mind alongside contemporary positions, including the idea of the mind as a 'stream of consciousness' or a process of neural firings in the brain. Ultimately, the book propounds that the mind is a permanent and unified entity that can be known through introspection and self-reflection, and its insights could potentially reshape our understanding of consciousness and human nature. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
