Infinity and the Brain offers a unique and logical solution to the mind-body problem. The book proposes that the relationship between mind and body is understandable only to the measure that we and our brains are unceasingly dependent upon the immanence of God. Part I explains why this is true based on how all physical structure tends to dissipate, thus moving toward its own nonexistence-a process that links the stability of all organized matter, including the brain, to the infinitude of God. The book explains why, were it not for the expectable wholeness of an image and a concomitant restraint of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, matter itself would be impossible. Part II theorizes that we have necessarily been made "in the image" of God if we are to explain the brain's homuncular design, a design by which the release of structurally-bound energy-in the incipient absence of an image-parallels an accelerating movement toward infinitude. The only requirement is that the universe must be fundamentally God-centered and personal-so personal that perception is literally equivalent to the efficiency by which an organism expects and habituates to its own finitude as contrasted with the infinitude of God.
