Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Neuroprotection in Autism, Schizophrenia and Alzheimer's Disease
provides an up-to-date overview on recent clinical studies and the
similarities discovered in the most prevalent brain disorders. The
book's content will help shed light on basic mechanisms and provide
new avenues for early diagnosis toward disease prevention and
disease modification. It is written for researchers, clinicians and
medical physicians in neuroscience, neurology and psychiatry.
Sections discuss the shared pathophysiological mechanisms that
underlie autism, schizophrenia/mood disorders and Alzheimer's
disease, i.e. neurodevelopmental disorders, neuropsychiatric
diseases and neurodegenerative disorders.
Conscious experience presents a deep puzzle. On the one hand, a
fairly robust materialism must be true in order to explain how it
is that conscious events causally interact with non-conscious,
physical events. On the other hand, we cannot explain how physical
phenomena give rise to conscious experience.
In this wide-ranging study, Joseph Levine explores both sides of
the mind-body dilemma, presenting the first book-length treatment
of his highly influential ideas on the "explanatory gap," the fact
that we can't explain the nature of phenomenal experience in terms
of its physical realization. He presents a careful argument that
there is such a gap, and, after providing intriguing analyses of
virtually all existing theories of consciousness, shows that recent
attempts to close it fall short of the mark. Levine concludes that
in the foreseeable future consciousness will remain a mystery.
Joseph Levine draws together a series of essays in which he has
developed his distinctive approach to philosophy of mind. He
explores such topics as the "phenomenal concept strategy" to defend
materialism from anti-materialist intuitions, the doctrine of
representationalism about phenomenal character, the modal argument
against materialism, the nature of demonstrative thought, and
cognitive phenomenology. Levine argues that the phenomenal concept
strategy cannot work and that representationalism has certain fatal
flaws, at least if it is to be joined to a materialist metaphysics.
On the other hand, he defends materialism from the modal argument,
contending that it relies on a questionable conflation of semantic
and metaphysical issues. Levine also provides a naturalistic theory
of demonstrative thought, criticizing certain philosophical
arguments involving that notion in the process. All of the essays
in some way respond to various materialist attempts to close the
"explanatory gap" as well as outline a different conception of
conscious experience that would accommodate the gap. Levine
connects his work with related themes in contemporary psychology
and with such hot philosophical topics as cognitive phenomenology.
