Ebook: Thinking Matter: Consciousness from Aristotle to Putnam and Sartre

This work looks at the nature of consciousness. The author argues that it is the "entire" fleshy body that thinks; the body of the dancer, the hands of a writer, and the eyes of the reader are not merely instruments of thought, but forms of thought itself. Calling for a thorough rethinking of philosophic traditions from Aristotle to Sartre, he offers a holistic view of the bodily nature of consciousness - one that focuses on the total organic body rather than the brain alone.
