John McCulloch
John McCulloch was a 19th-century Scottish philosopher and psychologist known for his work on the philosophy of mind and perception. He believed that mental processes are closely linked to physical processes in the brain, emphasizing that consciousness arises from the brain's activity. McCulloch contributed to understanding how the mind and body interact and explored the nature of perception, memory, and thought. His ideas helped bridge the gap between philosophy and the emerging field of neuroscience, influencing later theories about how the brain produces mental experiences.
