Sex, metaphysics, and madness: unveiling the grail on human nature and mental disorder

New York: Peter Lang (2013)

Abstract

Western metaphysics has been distorted by Aristotle's misconception of essence and (il)logic of male homophobia. Via its inscription of female bodies, this muddled metaphysics is causing a fragmentation of self that is currently leading to eating disorders. A spirogenetic model of essence and subjectivity may solve our metaphysical and thus mental ills.
