Description

The separation of mind and body, first expressed by Rene Descartes, is a classic philosophical paradox. How are mind and body distinct yet integrated within a human being? Distinguished philosopher Joseph Almog argues, in this short and accessible book, that Descartes managed to resolve this dilemma by treating the trio of mind, body, and being as separate yet fundamentally interdependent.
