"Philosophy and the Neurosciences" is the first systematic
integration of philosophy of mind and philosophy of science with
neuroscience research. As philosophers have come to focus more and
more on the relationship between mind and brain, they have had to
take greater account of theory and research in the neurosciences.
Likewise, as neuroscientists have learned more about cognitive
structures and functions, their investigations have expanded and
merged with traditional questions from the philosophy of mind.
By introducing key themes in philosophy of mind, philosophy of
science and the fundamental concepts of neuroscience, this text
provides philosophers with the necessary background to engage the
neurosciences and offers neuroscientists an introduction to the
relevant tools of philosophical analysis. Study questions, figures,
and references to further reading are provided in each chapter to
enhance the reader's understanding of how philosophy and the
neurosciences are related in their exploration of the human
mind.
