Elements of Modern Materialism (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book aims to challenge conventional wisdom by arguing that materialism is compatible with Christianity and that a future state of consciousness exists, independent of an immortal soul. The author, drawing on philosophy and medical science, posits that personal identity is defined by material elements rather than an immaterial entity. By examining phenomena such as instinct, dreams, insanity, and death, the book seeks to demonstrate that all mental activities can be attributed to physical processes within the brain. The author contends that this perspective aligns with Christian teachings, as it does not rely on the existence of a separate, unextended soul to account for consciousness. Ultimately, the book offers a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between mind, body, and the afterlife, inviting readers to reconsider long-held beliefs about human nature and spirituality. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259530695_0
