But it does not follow from any of these points, or from all of them taken together, that the / is an immaterial person-substance or ego. Sartre says the body is the "center of action" (BN, 320). Sartre's analysis of this point is similar to his analysis of the special place the body occupies in perception. The body is the continuing point of view from which other objects in the world are seen. The body is "that in relation to which the perceived object indicates its distance" (BN, 326). 17 In action, also, the body occupies a special position.

53 But Sartre did not move from the claim that the reducibility thesis is false to the broader claim that physicalism is false. In Being and Nothingness Sartre said that his project was to describe conscious phenomena, not to explain them (p. 620). He tried to show that there is no "insurmountable dualism" between things and consciousness. What he meant by this is that since consciousness is a relation to objects, there is no problem of showing any further connection. There is not the kind of difficulty Descartes faced in saying there are physical substances and mental substances, and then having to show how these totally unlike realms of being could have any connection with each other, since for Sartre consciousness exists originally as a relation to things.

It was mentioned earlier that he distinguishes two basic forms of existence: things and consciousness. , BN, 95, 171). There seems to be little question that his discussion of the structures of the for-itself is intended to apply to human consciousness. It is simply unclear whether he would deny that animals are conscious, thereby classifying them as things, or, if he admitted that animals are conscious, whether he would claim they have consciousness of a different sort. Sartre's ontological world simply does not appear to include animals.
