			        		`Review from previous edition Endorsement: Philip Clayton provides here a carefully considered and closely argued defence of the idea of strong emergence in relation to both the natural sciences and the human mind. The erudite argument is well-grounded in the relevant literature and solidlyrelated to the evolutionary process whereby complexity has come into being. The book will be an indispensable reading for those concerned with the `big questions&apos; related to the human mind, such as issues of agency and freedom.&apos;George Ellis, University of Cape Town

    Hard, but worth it.
  

*by T***N on April 30, 2014*









  
  
    A good book introducing the concept of Emergence in both epistemic and religious terms. Clayton breaks down the subject of Emergence and it's applicators to the Mind in several steps, all carefully outlined. If nothing else, it helps serve as a push back against the reductionist, physicalist takes that are so fashionable in some quarters. This is not a text to be tossed aside without careful examination, and it requires a considerable amount of careful reading. There are those who will, no doubt, chuck it aside as it will fail to meet the narrow dogmatism of their world views, but to do so is to risk missing the points it raises. It is dense, and not for someone who is not familiar with philosophy, quantum physics, the history of science, and trends in modern thought. It's not really for "beginners" but is an excellent resource for those interested in the field.

    Is Spirit an Emergent "Property" of the Universe?
  

*by M***N on April 26, 2008*









  
  
    Philip Clayton's "Mind and Emergence" is a brilliant synthesis of emergent/complexity theory, contemporary philosophy, and constructive theology.  As usual, Clayton really treats us to TWO books in one: a concise introduction to the various forms of emergence theory and some of the theory's major players (ala "The Emergence of Everything," by Harold Morowitz);  AND a tentative but boldly original proposal for an emergentist "Theology of Mind," both individual and, yes, Transcendent/Cosmic.  Highly recommended for anyone interested in the leading edge of the science and religion dialogue.
