Susan Hurley

Susan Hurley was a philosopher known for exploring how consciousness and free will relate to the physical world. She argued that our awareness and choices are deeply connected to how our brains and body function, emphasizing the importance of understanding the mind as an integrated system. Hurley believed that conscious experience is real and influences our decisions, rejecting the idea that mind and body are separate. Her work aimed to bridge the gap between neuroscience and philosophy, helping us understand how subjective experience arises from physical processes in the brain.
