Eliminative materialism is the process of using science to explain everything and anything that can happen in nature or to explain the existence of an object or living organism. According to the film “Eliminative Materialism” different types of math and science is used to determine an understanding and reason. Mathematics, Physics, chemistry and sociology are all used in the process of eliminative materialism. The film “Eliminative Materialism” provides three examples of the concept of eliminative materialism that have been used to further our understanding of our world and the human body.
