John Foster: Dualism

Abstract: 10 pages in length. Primary to John Foster's defense of dualism is the concept of human beings being more than just stimulus-response machines; as such, he long frowned upon the stringency of scientific requirements, belaboring the fact that the stringent community typically adopted a reductionist approach when it came to issues of variability. It was his contention that science maintained a strict and finite view of things that he perceived to have an otherwise broad range and potentiality; however, these aspects were often squelched by a need for systematic control. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
