Description: Why Materialism Is Baloney How true skeptics know there is no death and fathom answers to life, the universe, and everything by Bernardo Kastrup Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A hard-nosed, logical, and skeptic non-materialist metaphysics according to which the body is in mind, not mind in the body. Publisher Description The present framing of the cultural debate in terms of materialism versus religion has allowed materialism to go unchallenged as the only rationally-viable metaphysics. This book seeks to change this. It uncovers the absurd implications of materialism and then, uniquely, presents a hard-nosed non-materialist metaphysics substantiated by skepticism, hard empirical evidence, and clear logical argumentation. It lays out a coherent framework upon which one can interpret and make sense of every natural phenomenon and physical law, as well as the modalities of human consciousness, without materialist assumptions. According to this framework, the brain is merely the image of a self-localization process of mind, analogously to how a whirlpool is the image of a self-localization process of water. The brain doesnt generate mind in the same way that a whirlpool doesnt generate water. It is the brain that is in mind, not mind in the brain. Physical death is merely a de-clenching of awareness. The book closes with a series of educated speculations regarding the afterlife, psychic phenomena, and other related subjects. Author Biography Dr. Bernardo Kastrup has been a scientist in some of the worlds foremost scientific laboratories.
