Ricoeur and the Third Discourse of the Person - From Philosophy and Neuroscience to Psychiatry and Theology

Neuropsychiatrist Michael T. H. Wong argues that the notions of soul, mind, brain, self and consciousness are no longer adequate on their own to explain humanity. He formulates a "third discourse" that brings philosophy neuroscience theology and psychiatry together as an innovative multilayered narrative for the person in the twenty-first century.
