in regards to the first chapter, i t seem to me that the mind/ body
has no limit, or maybe some
can sense into their mind allot about many things and others allot
about one specialty.
A nurtured body is probably more capable.
Speech , sensed through the body channels alters the mind,makes
sense to me.
Things that hurt the body reach the mind very fast.
I'm convince, at this point, that the soul is actually one. mind and
body.

I;m not for skipping chapters because that suggests a apriori
judgemnt.
Regarding the body/mind, if the mind is embodied, then what are the
limits of the body? Skin surface in? Do we include bodily fluids
and wastes as part of the body? Do we include speech? Do we
include things thrown from the body? Where does the body begin and
end? These may seem like ridiculous questions but if there is a
soul that is co-existent with the body or at one with it, then we
need to know the extension of the body, or the soul.

The next one is pretty farfetched-George Eliot's
writing prefigures the
brain replacing its own cells all its life, thus
establishing human freedom.
Perhaps we could skip to the chapter on Proust?
