PSY-PHY A Brief Introduction To Ultimate Reality J. Andrew Ross Book-format preprint 198 pages, PDF, 1.4 MB The human mind is still in many ways a mystery to science. This book explores a framework for scientists to understand it. It aims to found psychophysics, where the science of mind meets physics. Physics is the fundamental science of nature. Psychology is not yet a science in the same sense. The framing logic needs recasting. We need to recognize the role of becoming, or of evolution in the widest sense, to the task of building models in science. The new perspective on psychology is radical. A logic of becoming distinguishes the big self from the little self. If the ego is the big self in being, the little self is projected into existence as a puppet avatar in a virtual reality, or a mindworld. As conscious beings, we live in a mindworld movie. Our lived reality grows in time. The book introduces a new logic for science. It is written for readers who want not only to see how it works but also to enjoy the ride. |
