    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Aristotle initiated the systematic investigation of perception, the emotions, memory, desire, and action. The Undivided Self argues that Aristotle's account of these phenomena is a philosophically live alternative to conventional modern thinking about the mind, offering a way to dissolve, rather than solve, the mind-body problem we have inherited.

    Long description:

    Aristotle initiated the systematic investigation of perception, the emotions, memory, desire and action, developing his own account of these phenomena and their interconnection. The Undivided Self aims to gain a philosophical understanding of his views and to examine how far they withstand critical scrutiny. Aristotle's account, it is argued, constitutes a philosophically live alternative to conventional post-Cartesian thinking about psychological phenomena and their place in a material world. Charles offers a way to dissolve, rather than solve, the mind-body problem we have inherited.

    This exegetical work...makes an important contribution to our philosophical understanding of the mind body relationship.
