Metaphysics

Metaphysics

Write a comparative essay first describing Descartes’ theory on the mind-body solution. Then describe how Roderick Chisholm solves the problem.  Show how each are flawed.  Give your own solution that is similar to Chisholm’s humunculus  theory. 5 sources minimum but use “Metaphysics: the big question” 2nd ed. By peter van Inwagen and Dean W Zimmerman

OR… write a paper over just Descartes’ theory and describe it in detail for half the paper or more then make a couple of points that one could attack in his solution to the Mind-Body problem. In the end, wrap it up by concluding you dont believe in his solution whole heartedly and why.
