This collection of seventeen essays was Dennett's first work, and is arguably still his finest, having established his position at the head of his field. Amongst other things, he questions the relationship between our psychology and our morality, as well as exploring the concept of human intentionality. What emerges from his provocative questions is a unifying theory of the mind, and a highly refreshing and stimulating book.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. A collection of 17 essays exploring the central issues of the philosophy of the mind, and human interaction with psychology and evolutionary biology. This book questions the relationship between psychology and morality as well as exploring the concept of human intentionality. It argues that intentional attributes such as desires, goals, beliefs and knowledge are purely mechanistic. The author also considers the meaning of mental imagery, sensations, pain and other puzzling aspects of consciousness. Central to the discussion of the book is the question of whether psychology can support a vision of humans as moral agents, free to choose what they do and responsible for their actions. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. N° de réf. du vendeur GOR001508883
