DESCRIPTION:Generally speaking\, my PhD thesis concerns how by the middle 
 of the nineteenth century the British medical community had come to regard
  the mind as nothing more than 'brain juice'\, yet still managed to evade\
 naccusations of materialism and atheism that they frequently levelled at t
 he French. In this chapter\, I have examined a debate surrounding phrenolo
 gy\nand a particular group of philosophers - the common sense school - in 
 the hope to show that the cause of materialism was helped by a confusion i
 nherent within the philosophical camp.
