About this listen

Delve into a groundbreaking exploration of the mind-body problem, as seen through the lens of post-structuralist thought. This captivating book challenges centuries of philosophical tradition, unraveling Descartes' influential mind-body dualism and revealing a new paradigm of embodied cognition.
Embark on a journey that will:
  • Shatter the Illusion of a Separate Self: Discover how your identity is a dynamic interplay of language, culture, and embodied experience, not a fixed essence.
  • Reunite Mind and Body: Explore the interconnectedness of thought, feeling, and physicality, challenging the notion of a "ghost in the machine."
  • Unmask the Power of Language: Uncover how words shape our understanding of the world, including the very categories of "mind" and "body."
  • Reimagine Gender: Challenge traditional gender norms and embrace the fluidity of identity as a performance.
  • Embrace Embodiment: Celebrate the wisdom of the body and its profound influence on our thoughts, emotions, and decision-making.
This thought-provoking book weaves together philosophy, science, and cultural analysis, offering a fresh perspective on what it means to be human. Whether you're a student, scholar, or simply curious about the nature of mind and body, this book will challenge your assumptions and spark new ways of thinking.
