Mind And Body

The Mind-Body Issue
The mind/body issue in philosophy asks many questions.  At first, what are these things, these substances, that we call ‘mind’ and ‘body’?  What are their individual natures?  Are they the same thing?  Or are they fundamentally different things?  And if they are different, how do they interact?  Do they interact?  And if they interact, for what purpose do they interact?  Such questions have plagued philosophy since at least Plato, leading some to privilege mind over matter, and leading others to believe that all that exists is mind idealism, and still others to argue that all that exists are bodies or physical matter materialism.  In idealism and materialism, there would seem to be a similar impulse to make the mind/body problem go away.  But true theories of mind and body do not attempt to rid one side of the equation, either mind or body, but rather attempt to account for both sides in a coherent theory.
