Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fundamental nature of the human mind and its intricate workings through the lens of Physiology. It presents a groundbreaking work on Pneumatology, blending the disciplines of philosophy, logic, and natural science to offer a comprehensive understanding of the mind's operations. The author challenges traditional notions, providing irrefutable evidence to demonstrate that the mind is not a simple, unextended entity, but rather a complex and multifaceted realm. This revelation challenges long-held assumptions and opens up new avenues for exploration within the field of psychology. By examining the physiological properties of our thoughts, particularly our sensations of color and the laws governing their interlimitations, the author establishes the mind's extended and figured nature. The book delves into the historical context of philosophical theories on the mind, contrasting the author's findings with prevailing ideas and demonstrating the flaws in assumptions about the mind's simplicity. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of philosophy, psychology, and cognitive science, offering a fresh perspective that will undoubtedly shape future discussions on the nature of the human mind.
