Mind and Matter, an Introduction to the Study of Metaphysics

by C.E.M. Joad

I SHALL endeavour in the following pages to outline and to examine some of the most important theories current to-day with regard to (1) the nature of mind, (2) the nature of matter, and (3) the relationship between them. The issues raised by these questions are highly controversial, and agreed conclusions are lacking on almost every subject upon which we shall touch.
