Reviews

"Mistaken Identity is a bold, incisive, witty, provocative examination of one of the most pressing philosophical and scientific problems of our time, and could become a significant new rallying point in the consciousness wars." - John Horgan, author of The Undiscovered Mind: How the Human Brain Defies Replication, Medication, and Explanation "This book provides a subtle and very important criticism of many ordinary ways of understanding the relation of mind and brain." - Nancey Murphy, coeditor of Neuroscience and the Person: Scientific Perspectives on Divine Action
