“Personhood and Neuroscience” with Dr. Thomas Fuchs

Do we find what makes up a person in the brain? Dr. Thomas Fuchs argues that we are persons to each other not as abstract minds, but as living, visible, and palpable beings. This view of the person also corresponds to the biological reality of the organism: the brain is not the locus of consciousness, but an organ of mediation for the relations of the conscious organism to the environment. It is not the brain, but the living person who feels, thinks, and acts.
