In a companion-piece essay to his essay “Running On Empty: Why Hasn’t Professional Academic Philosophy Produced Any Important Ideas in the Last 50 Years?,” namely, “How To Make Two Neglected Brilliant Ideas into Important or Even Revolutionary Ideas,” Robert Hanna identifies two of those brilliant but systematically neglected philosophical ideas: (i) the essential embodiment theory of the mind-body relation and mental causation, and (ii) the neo-organicist worldview. Then he also presents a strategy for making these two brilliant ideas into important or even revolutionary philosophical ideas.
