Dr Edward Feser suggested that Aristotle's approach [and Aquinas] solves the Mind body problem.

Some people like Dr Edward Feser have suggested that Aristotle's approach [and Aquinas] solves the Mind body problem. Then I saw on his site a link to here http://faculty.fordham.edu/jaworski/

But based on what I saw in Thomas Reid and Dr Michael Huemer I do not know how this can help.

Here is the link to the book:Hylomorphism-Mind-Body

The reason that I think this can not work is that people are made of atoms. Atoms do not have mental states.

Normally I have a lot of confidence in Medieval thinking. But in this case I am wondering because I am thinking they might be ignoring the point made by Berkeley.
