    • Leibniz's Philosophy of Mind

      Leibniz's place in the history of the philosophy of mind is best secured by his pre-established harmony.In a more popular view, this is the thesis that, roughly, there is no mind-body interaction strictly speaking, for there is only a non-causal relationship of harmony, parallelism, or correspondence between mind and body.

    • Kant's View of The Mind and Consciousness of Self

      Synthesis (and the unity in consciousness required for synthesis) are central to cognition. These three ideas are fundamental to most thinking about cognition now.

    A Philosophy of Unity - Volume 60 Issue 1. 5 For the Greeks (and Plotinus) "one" was not strictly a number, but it was the means by which all other numbers were defined and generated. This conception of "one" is related to the fact that the Greeks also did not understand zero, or "nothing," to be a number.

    Drawing on philosophy, psychology and neuroscience, this book presents answers to these questions.

    The Scholastics later took being, unity, good, something, true as convertible predicates. On being and unity see Aquinas ST la Q.11 Art.1; on being and good see Aquinas ST Q.6 Arts. 1,3. Since being is transcendental then any predicates convertible with being will also be transcendental.

    Tye (2003, pp. 11-5), for example, distinguishes object unity, neurophysiological unity, spatial unity, subject unity, introspective unity, and, finally, phenomenal unity. The latter is the notion that he explicates in terms of contents being experienced together, entering into the same phenomenal content, and is the notion on which he focuses.
