Features: As an interdisciplinary field between philosophy and psychology, psychological philosophy has only begun to emerge in China. Due to its relatively complete theoretical system and extensive knowledge coverage, this book has become the first specialized work on psychological philosophy in the country. The book objectively evaluates the representative figures and academic views active in the field of psychological philosophy in China and abroad in recent modern times. With the help of new research findings in modern science and technology, it systematically explains philosophical-oriented mental phenomena, such as the levels and elements of consciousness, the emergence and development of intelligence, the micro-mechanisms of cognitive activities, and verbal reflection and expression. Additionally, it provides an in-depth analysis of the so-called "mysterious" states of consciousness that have been debated for thousands of years in human history, such as "dreaming," "hypnosis," "inspiration," "telepathy," and "extra-sensory perception."
