Synopsis

This collection provides an introduction to the contemporary debate about the relation between mind and body. Recent philosophy has seen a resurgence of interest in this issue. The contributions in this volume, written by the leading figures in the field, give an overview of the current state of play. This debate subjects classical physicalism - the view that the mind is, in some sense, physical - to an intense re-evaluation, a re-evaluation which is in part an analysis of the explanatory scope and limits of philosophy itself.

Quatrième de couverture

This is an introduction to the contemporary debate about the relation between mind and body. Recent philosophy has seen a resurgence of interest in this issue and the contributions in this volume, written by the leading figures in the field, gives a uniquely thorough overview of the current state of play. This debate subjects classical physicalism – the view that the mind is, in some sense, physical – to an intense re–evaluation, a re–evaluation which is in part an analysis of the explanatory scope and limits of philosophy itself.
