This book reviews some of the most important scientific and
philosophical theories concerning the nature of mind and
consciousness. Current theories on the mind-body problem and the
neural correlates of consciousness are presented through a series
of biographical sketches of the most influential thinkers across
the fields of philosophy of mind, psychology and neuroscience. The
book is divided into two parts: the first is dedicated to
philosophers of mind and the second, to
neuroscientists/experimental psychologists. Each part comprises
twenty short chapters, with each chapter being dedicated to one
author. A brief introduction is given on his or her life and most
important works and influences. The most influential theory/ies
developed by each author are then carefully explained and examined
with the aim of scrutinizing the strengths and weaknesses of the
different approaches to the nature of consciousness.
