A Contemporary Introduction Second Edition

John Heil   

overview

Philosophy of Mind: A Contemporary Introduction covers the major topics typically studied in philosophy of mind and discusses the dualist, behaviorist, functionalist, interpretationist, and eliminativist accounts of the nature of mind, along with a critical assessment of the recent trends in the subject.
This fully revised and updated version of the highly successful first edition builds on the previously addressed themes and expands on central topics. The new edition includes:
* A brand new chapter on consciousness
* An expansion of the Davidson and Dennett discussions, splitting them into two stand-alone chapters
* A chapter looking at general issues associated with present day approaches to the theory of mind
