Book Description
Excerpt from Scientific Idealism: Or Matter and Force and Their Relation to Life and Consciousness The great question, What is Life? is one which may be asked and answered in many different ways; but each individual must assuredly answer it in some manner or other, for he is confronted with it in a most undeniable and practical form, simply because he is alive. Each one of us possesses life and consciousness, and we cannot avoid the problem: though we may fail to understand its real nature, and may even - with more or less success for a certain length of time - ignore it. In its lowest and most material aspect the problem is simply one of daily bread - or daily pleasure. Many, indeed, are unconscious of the problem in any other form. But man cannot live by bread alone: and, sooner or later, in the evolution of every individual there must come a time when the great problem assumes other and higher aspects. In the history of man's endeavour to solve the problem of his own life, and the great Riddle of the Universe of which he is a part, these higher aspects fall into three categories, known respectively as Science, Philosophy, and Religion. Each of these may be said to regard the problem from a different point of view, and each is commonly looked upon as more or less independent of the others. To show that this is not so in reality is one of the main objects of this present work. What is herein attempted, therefore, is somewhat in the nature of a synthesis of science, philosophy, and religion; not, however, as either of these is commonly understood in any mere formal or scholastic sense, but rather as representing three phases of human thought and experience which are fundamentally inseparable in the true life and development of every individual, and which can be thus understood without any special training in connection with either.

The Idea of the World
Author: Bernardo Kastrup
Publisher: John Hunt Publishing
ISBN: 1785357409
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
A rigorous case for the primacy of mind in nature, from philosophy to neuroscience, psychology and physics. The Idea of the World offers a grounded alternative to the frenzy of unrestrained abstractions and unexamined assumptions in philosophy and science today. This book examines what can be learned about the nature of reality based on conceptual parsimony, straightforward logic and empirical evidence from fields as diverse as physics and neuroscience. It compiles an overarching case for idealism - the notion that reality is essentially mental - from ten original articles the author has previously published in leading academic journals. The case begins with an exposition of the logical fallacies and internal contradictions of the reigning physicalist ontology and its popular alternatives, such as bottom-up panpsychism. It then advances a compelling formulation of idealism that elegantly makes sense of - and reconciles - classical and quantum worlds. The main objections to idealism are systematically refuted and empirical evidence is reviewed that corroborates the formulation presented here. The book closes with an analysis of the hidden psychological motivations behind mainstream physicalism and the implications of idealism for the way we relate to the world.
