Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This philosophical text from a bygone era delves into the integral connection between mind and body and the properties of each. It was written in the 18th century, a time when the author perceived a societal shift away from the teachings of the ancients and toward questionable philosophies, particularly those of David Hume and Dr. Priestley. The author sets out on a mission to resuscitate a religious philosophy based on the principles of ancient Greek thought. Through a series of thought experiments and logical arguments, the author asserts that the human mind is an active and distinct substance that initiates and maintains all motion in the universe, ultimately tracing all actions and reactions back to a divine mind. This philosophical treatise offers a compelling argument for a mind-body dualism that has implications for our understanding of the universe, the nature of God, and the purpose of human existence.
