materialism vs. dualism
Materialism vs. dualism refers to contrasting philosophical views on the nature of reality and the mind. Materialism asserts that everything, including the mind, consists of physical matter and can be explained by physical processes. Dualism, on the other hand, posits that the mind and physical matter are distinct entities, suggesting that the mind cannot be reduced to or entirely explained by physical phenomena.
