Psuche vs. Mind

The Aristotelian Psuche is different from the Mind. From the beginning of the new era, the Aristotelian Psuche has been replaced by the concept of mind. But the concepts of mind and consciousness are incomplete, and they cannot indicate the total reality of human being. Conversely, Psuche is a broad notion by which we can grasp the true idea about the reality of human being. In this article, based on the Aristotelian vision on Psuche, Wilkes has tried to show the fundamental difference between these two notions. Also he argues for Psuche and against mind. He suggests to remove the concept of mind and to use the Aristotelian Psuche. Philosophically, it is more precise than the other concept. In fact, concerning the scientific psychology, the concept of the Psuche is more suitable than the mind.
