Raymond Tallis is a philosopher, poet, novelist, and cultural critic whose extensive writings offer a critique of current intellectual trends and an alternative understanding of human consciousness, language, and the nature of being. With a background as a physician and clinical scientist, he brings a unique perspective to his exploration of the human experience. Tallis's work delves into the distinctiveness of human consciousness and existence, often challenging prevailing thought and offering profound insights into what it means to be human.
Raymond Tallis steps into the gap between mind and world to explore what is at stake in our attempts to make sense of our world. He reveals how philosophers, theologians and scientists have sought to demystify our extraordinary sense- making capabilities and how their attempts are of little help in explaining the intelligibility of the world.
