How are the mind and body harnessed together? In The Mind Incarnate Lawrence Shapiro addresses this question by testing two widely accepted hypotheses, the multiple realizability thesis and the separability thesis. He argues that there is signficicant--though far from decisive--evidence against them. While contemporary philosophers no longer view the mind as a supernatural entity--the famous "Ghost in the Machine" dogma that Gilbert Ryle ridiculed over fifty years ago--Shapiro argues that naturalistic approaches to understanding the mind retain their own naturalized varieties of ghosts. In particular, the multiple realizability thesis holds that the connection between human minds and human brains is in some sense accidental: the tie between mental properties and neural properties is not physically necessary.
