Psykens materialitet

Aspekter af neuropsykologiens historie

Abstract

In neuropsychology we have an scientific investigation of the classical philosophical psychofysical problem, especially in the socalled theories of cerebral Iocalisation. These theories are followed from 18th century and up to now. The paper differentiates between mechanicistic, dualistic and funtionalistic localisationist theories. At the end of the paper an alternative to these three theories are introduced, and discussed from an episternological and ontological point of view.
