Description

Description from Internet Archive (opens in a new tab)

An Historical, Physiological, and Theological Treatise on the Human Soul explores the nature of the soul through biblical, scientific, and philosophical lenses. This rare work synthesizes early modern medicine, theology, and metaphysics to examine whether the soul is material or immaterial, how it interacts with the body, and its fate after death. Drawing heavily on scriptural references and contemporary medical theory, it presents an integrative view of human consciousness and spiritual continuity. Ideal for scholars of early psychology, Christian anthropology, and the history of mind-body dualism.
