Philosophy of mind typically studies mind and brain in order to understand their relationships. There are many assumptions commonly accepted without any critical survey by most philosophers of mind that severely limit the possibility of finding a solution to the gap between mind and brain, such as: reductionism, physicalism, materialism, analytical method, mechanicism. With the help of new perspectives coming also from biology and the neurosciences, I suggest to introduce the systemic approach to better understand what sort of being the humans are and how mind and brain should be thought in order to solve the problem of their relationships

Abstract
Philosophy of mind typically studies mind and brain in order to understand their relationships. There are many assumptions commonly accepted without any critical survey by most philosophers of mind that severely limit the possibility of finding a solution to the gap between mind and brain, such as: reductionism, physicalism, materialism, analytical method, mechanicism. With the help of new perspectives coming also from biology and the neurosciences, I suggest to introduce the systemic approach to better understand what sort of being the humans are and how mind and brain should be thought in order to solve the problem of their relationshipsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
