The Mind and the Brain by Jeffrey M. Schwartz

Very good presentation of mind with a convincing presentation of evidence for adult neuroplasticity. The discussion of quantum mechanics is interesting but seems to be a materialist explanation nonetheless. The main impetus is a moral argument. The author is a Buddhist and does a good job of focusing on mental states. The last chapter is a good summary of the entire argument.
