The title of this book is taken from Leibniz's famous metaphor in support of a dualism between the mind, or self, and the body. Charles Landesman's basic claim, argued with clarity and philosophical precision, is that dualism is to be preferred to materialism, namely, the self is not reducible to the body, mental processes are not reducible to brain processes, and the idea that the self is a mental substance constitutes the best understanding of all the facts of mental life.
