The Problem of the Self from Descartes to Kant and the Rise of Modern Scientific Materialism is a philosophical treatise written by H. P. Blavatsky, the founder of the Theosophical Society. The book explores the concept of the self and its evolution from the Cartesian dualism to the Kantian transcendentalism, and how it was affected by the rise of modern scientific materialism in the 19th century. Blavatsky argues that the self is not just a product of the physical body and the brain, but also has a spiritual dimension that transcends the material world. She draws on the teachings of Eastern philosophy and mysticism to support her arguments and critiques the reductionist approach of modern science to the study of the self. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of the self and its relationship with the universe, and offers a unique perspective on the intersection of philosophy, science, and spirituality.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Self and its Problems; The Blavatsky Lecture for 1919, by H.
