Head and Heart proposes a theory of a triune consciousness formed by the heart and mind, composed of an equal partnership of reason, will, and affection. Professor Tallon sets out asking whether and how affective consciousness fits into this triad. By first defining affection in terms of intentionality (as the theory of a triune consciousness is possible only when affectivity has been shown to participate in intentionality), he argues that affection, in its full scope of passion, emotion, and mood, earns a place equal to cognition and volition as a constituent of the human consciousness. Tallon accomplishes his task by proving the existence of affectivity as a distinct kind of consciousness inseparable from the other two, by showing precisely how affection works, how it operates in synthesis with reason and will, and, finally, by offering a new concept of a triune consciousness as paradigm for the human mind.

Head and heart have battled long enough.1 It's time they got their acts together, literally. If heart means feeling, and head means knowing, with both of these subject, directly or indirectly, to willing, then triune consciousness would mean the union of affection, cognition, and volition as an operational synthesis. This thesis seems simple enough to state, and is even self-evident to whoever places practice before theory, but philosophy questions everything: a theory must be articulated clearly, argued successfully, and defended against all comers. The dominant rationalist tradition currently still holding the turf, even as we find new challenges to it emerging, has methodically excluded one kind of consciousness from this trilogy: affection.
