About “The ghost in the machine”
The Ghost in the Machine is a 1967 work in philosophical psychology that examines the human mind as an emergent property of brain structure, rejecting the Cartesian dualist notion of a non-material mind. It explores how the human brain's evolutionary development, retaining primitive structures, contributes to humanity's self-destructive tendencies, particularly in the context of political and historical cycles culminating in nuclear arms.
