Making Room for a This-Worldly Physicalism
Topoi 37 (3):523-532 (2018)
Abstract
Physicalism is thought to entail that mental properties supervene on microphysical properties, or in other words that all God had to do was to create the fundamental physical properties and the rest came along for free. In this paper, we question the all-god-had-to-do reflex.Author Profiles
