"Thinking Matter" is an original and provocative look at the nature
of consciousness. While many contemporary philosophers have
downplayed the significance of the body and subscribed to a
brain/body dualism in human consciousness, Joseph S. Catalano
argues that it is the "entire" fleshy body that thinks; the body of
the dancer, the hands of the writer, and the eyes of the reader are
not merely instruments of thought, but forms of thought itself.
Calling for a thorough rethinking of philosophic traditions from
Aristotle to Sartre, Catalano offers a holistic view of the bodily
nature of consciousness--one that focuses on the total organic body
rather than the brain alone.
