Consciousness and Fundamental Reality

Consciousness and Fundamental Reality Hardback - 2017 - 1st Edition

by Philip Goff

  • New
  • Hardcover

Description

Hardback. New. The first half of this book argues that physicalism cannot account for consciousness, and hence cannot be true. The second half explores and defends Russellian monism, a radical alternative to both physicalism and dualism. The view that emerges combines panpsychism with the view that the universe as a whole is fundamental.
