Sažetak
The author argues that on the basis of physical similarity we cannot conclude about the epiphenomenality of psychological states of others. If epiphenomenal states are accesible only to one person, then they cannot be studied by objective, scientific methods. The author also shows that Van Rooijen's argument that human beings are not machines is not valid.
