Ep. 175 - The Existence of the Mind and the Definition of 'Physical' w/Dr. Dolores Morris

Is the physical world causally closed? If so, then all causes are physical causes, or are reducible to physical causes or entities. That would seem to preclude an immaterial mind's interaction with the body. Dr. Dolores Morris help's me think through Hempel's dilemma for defining what we mean by 'physical'. We also get into lots of other topics in the philosophy of mind.
