Mind and Cosmos
Why the Materialist Neo-Darwinian Conception of Nature is Almost Certainly False
Thomas Nagel
This book challenges the widely accepted belief of materialist naturalism and its inability to explain consciousness and mind-related aspects of reality. The author argues that a purely materialistic understanding of nature, including biology and evolutionary theory, is fundamentally incomplete. The book explores the obstacles to reductionism, with a specific focus on consciousness, cognition, and value, and concludes that physics cannot be the theory of everything.
