studying subjective experience
western science has been dominated by reductionist, materialist inquiries, but there is a tradition in western culture that grapples with individual consciousnessness that is neither neuroscience or cognitive psychology.
Wallace has a blind spot for the post-Freudian psychoanalytic tradition.
no one claiming to bridge east/west approaches to Mind should be so ignorant of the psychology of intersubjective states, how we generate meaning and the ways we organize experience which have been the primary interests of modern psychoanalytic thinkers since 1950.
maybe Wallace prefers more either/or instead of both/and.
