Exploring what great philosophers have written about the nature of
thought and consciousness Philosophy of Mind: The Key Thinkers
offers a comprehensive overview of this fascinating field. Thirteen
specially commissioned essays, written by leading experts,
introduce and explore the contributions of those philosophers who
have shaped the subject and the central issues and arguments
therein. The modern debate about the mind was shaped by Descartes
in the seventeenth century, and then reshaped in the mid-twentieth
century, and since, by exciting developments in science and
philosophy. This book concentrates on the development of
philosophical views on the mind since Descartes, offering coverage
of the leading thinkers in the field including Husserl, Ryle,
Lewis, Putnam, Fodor, Davidson, Dennett and the Churchlands.
Crucially the book demonstrates how the ideas and arguments of
these key thinkers have contributed to our understanding of the
relationship between mind and brain. Ideal for undergraduate
students, the book lays the necessary foundations for a complete
and thorough understanding of this fascinating subject.
