In the piece relating the mind and the brain, //Mind, Brain and Adaptation// by Robert Wozniak, there is an interesting reference to the soul. The article mentions how many philosophers of the ancient world believed that our brain, and our thinking capacity, was separate and different than our soul, which dealt with spirituality and motions. Once again we see a tie between religion and science. What is also interesting is that the article deals solely with the mind and brain, which are under psychology. Psychology itself is usually deemed a “soft science.” a lot of psychology is philosophy related and very abstract it is deemed less scientific than say, physics or chemistry. This is another overarching theme that we’ve seen multiple times, science and philosophy.
