As an example, a physical state such as hungry will be described better or reduce as a certain kind of neurological state. That’s why in his essay “Mental events”, Davidson gives us his take between the relation between the mental and the physical. For this he creates this theory of anomalous monisms, which is based in two key claims. Taking a big chunk of the paper, Davidson divides his takes on term events and bases these two claims in this context. The first claim is that all events (including the mental) fall into the class of physical events, and therefore there is one type of thing in the world, this would be the monism part of the theory. The second claims in that the ‘anomalous’ component has to do with the argument that there are no strict, exception less laws governing the relation of the physical to the psychological (no psychophysical laws), and there are no laws relating the mental to the mental (no psychological laws).To collaborate his argument, Davidson outlines three key principles to make his monism argument viable, which
