| Book Subtitle | The Invention Of The Modern Mind |
| Book Description | Soul Machine takes us back to the origins of modernity, a time when a crisis in religious authority and the scientific revolution led to searching questions about the nature of human inner life. This is the story of how a new concept-the mind-emerged as a potential solution, one that was part soul and part machine but fully neither. George Makari shows how writers, philosophers, doctors and anatomists worked to construct notions of the mind as not an ethereal thing but a natural one. This became the basis of the mind sciences, liberal politics, secular ethics and radically new visions of the self, society, the ordering of knowledge and the sources of unreason. Boldly original and synthetic, Soul Machine is a masterful new history of the mind, madness and the emergence of psychological man in the Western world. |

I highly recommend it.--Christiane Northrup, M.D. "Throughout this volume and with utmost clarity, Dr. Carolyn Dean presents invaluable recommendations--based on the latest magnesium research. Virtually every American can benefit."--Paul Pitchford, author of Healing with Whole Foods "Dr. Carolyn Dean has the best credentials for bringing solutions to those suffering from the hidden magnesium disorders that affect most of us. This book needs to be read by anyone wishing to improve their quality of life."--Stephen T. Sinatra, M.D., author of The Sinatra Solution: Metabolic Cardiology |
