Synopsis
In this dense but scintillating philosophical treatise, Henri Bergson fuses philosophy, psychology and neuroscience in an effort to establish the relationship between the human spirit and physical matter. He rejects the idealist view that all matter is a product of the human mind, as well as the realist notion that matter is a "thing" entirely outside of human awareness. The truth, he claims, is mid-way: an object is a combination of itself and our perception of it. He locates memory as the corresponding half-way point between the material world and consciousness, an aggregate of the images presented by reality and the flights of imagination that are mankind's proof of the existence of the spiritual. In beginning to stress the lived experience as one of duration rather than mechanical clock time, Bergson also rebelled against the limitations of logic, embracing instead the idea of thinking intuitively.
