Dualism and Materialism
Question
Hello, Honorable Rabbi, and have a good week! I’m studying philosophy, and right now I’m taking a course in philosophy of mind, and I was wondering whether there is, or will be, a series on dualism and materialism. There are lots of questions and difficulties on these topics. I know you touched on this a bit in the series on free choice, but a lot more explanation is needed on the subject. Thanks in advance.
Answer
At the moment I haven’t planned one. I deal with this at length in my book The Science of Freedom.
Discussion on Answer
It should be in the stores or through the publisher (Yediot Books).
Thanks—where can I buy the book? I’m also looking for God Plays Dice. I didn’t find it at Steimatzky / Re-Sipur.
