Matthew MacKenzie is professor of philosophy at Colorado State University. MacKenzie specializes in Buddhist and Indian philosophy, philosophy of mind, and metaphysics. His research takes a cross-cultural, interdisciplinary approach to questions of consciousness, selfhood, and embodiment.
Buddhist Philosophy and the Embodied Mind is focused, well-argued, scholarly, accessible, and worthy of discussion by others in the various fields in cognitive science, phenomenology, philosophy of mind, Buddhist studies, contemporary Indian philosophy. This material is very difficult to write about and it isn't easy to convey it to scholars or the public; yet, Mackenzie's writing style navigates the terrain in a powerful and inviting way. --Anand Jayprakash Vaidya, San Jose State University
