Descartes and the Metaphysics of Human Nature - Continuum Studies in Philosophy
Justin Skirry
How can causal interaction occur between the spiritual mind and the physical body since they have absolutely nothing in common and cannot come into contact with one another? This book shows how Descartes avoids this problem. The author argues that the union of mind and body is not constituted by efficient causal interaction for Descartes.
