In the early twentieth century, Ernst Mach, William James, and
Bertrand Russell founded a philosophical and scientific movement
known as 'neutral monism', based on the view that minds and
physical objects are constructed out of elements or events which
are neither mental nor physical, but neutral between the two. This
movement offers a unified scientific outlook which includes
sensations in human experience and events in the world of physics
under one roof. In this book Erik C. Banks discusses this important
movement as a whole for the first time. He explores the ways in
which the three philosophers can be connected, and applies their
ideas to contemporary problems in the philosophy of mind and the
philosophy of science - in particular the relation of sensations to
brain processes, and the problem of constructing extended bodies in
space and time from particular events and causal relations.
