In this paper length eBook, psychotherapist and philosopher Tim Kellebrew introduces the concepts of social referents of dialogue and how they contribute to a shared nature of mind.
In extensive endnotes that are almost as interesting as the text, Kellebrew draws upon his 25 years of clinical experience and knowledge as a therapist to make unique observations about mind and consciousness that only a trained dialogical therapist could make. Kellebrew concludes that social referents of dialogue and the dialogical realm could lead to increased tolerance, acceptance and confirmation of Others, and to peace.
Discussions of philosophical ideas abound in the eBook, ranging from Martin Buber, Hilary Putnam, Richard Rorty, David Rosenthal, Plato, Borges, and Descartes. The problems of dualism, one and many, mind and consciousness, other minds, and representational knowledge are among the philosophical themes discussed in this eBook.
