The Existential Limits of Reason

“The Existential Limits of the Mind” is an exploration of the nature of human fears and limitations. The book offers a fresh perspective on pessimism and existentialism, drawing on the ideas of Peter Zapffe, Irvin Yalom, and predictive coding, a Bayesian approach to the mind. Through the lens of philosophy, cognitive science, and neurobiology, it reveals the mechanisms of adaptation to finitude and meaninglessness. This book helps to gain a deeper insight into the limits of the mind.
