Health, consciousness, and the evolution of subjects
Walter Veit
Summary: The goal of this paper is to explore the close connection between the core problem in the philosophy of medicine - the concept of health, and the core problem of the philosophy of mind - the concept of consciousness. By combining the evolutionary perspective of modern state-based behavioral and life-history theories, we can better understand the significance of both as natural phenomena.
