C. D. Broad
Notes
C. D. Broad (1887–1971), Cambridge philosopher and the clearest of the British emergentists. The Mind and Its Place in Nature (1925) argued that the properties of a chemical compound could not even in principle be derived from the properties of its elements and had to be learned by observation, and that mind stood to brain in the same way. Quantum chemistry disposed of the first claim within a decade, which is the main thing I hold against the second (Emergentism). He also took psychical research seriously and served as president of the Society for Psychical Research, which is consistent with the rest.
