Do our conscious minds exert a non-physical influence on the workings of our brains, or are we just soft machines? Most scientists today opt for a mechanistic view of the human brain, but in this book - a fascinating blend of physics and philosophy - David Hodgson makes out a powerful case for the efficacy of the mind.

In this book David Hodgson presents a clear and compelling case against today''s orthodox mechanistic view of the brain and mind, and in favour of the view that `the mind matters''. Although written from a philosophical viewpoint, the book has important implications for the sciences concerned with the brain and mind problem. At the same time, it is largely non-technical, and thus accessible to the non-specialist reader.
