Jeffrey Schwartz
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jeffrey Schwartz is a research professor at the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA) who is a major proponent of the idea that human will, intention or consciousness is nonmaterialistic and dualistic, possibly even being a "mental force" similar to that of gravity. Author of the book "Mind and Brain," he proposes that many therapies can show how intent (a state of mind) can in fact affect the functioning and actual construction of "circuits" in the brain--an effect that previous dualistic concepts of the mind and brain have not been able to illustrate.
