Paul Churchland (Paperback)
Series: Contemporary Philosophy in Focus

For over three decades, Paul Churchland has been a provocative and
controversial philosopher of mind and of science. He is most famous
as an advocate of 'eliminative materialism', whereby he suggests
that our commonsense understanding of our own minds is radically
defective and that the science of brain demonstrates this (just as
an understanding of physics reveals that our commonsense
understanding of a flat and motionless earth is similarly false).
This collection offers an introduction to Churchland's work, as
well as a critique of some of his most famous philosophical
positions. Including contributions by both established and
promising young philosophers, it is intended to complement the
growing literature on Churchland, focusing on his contributions in
isolation from those of his wife and philosophical partner,
Patricia Churchland, as well as on his contributions to philosophy
as distinguished from those to Cognitive Science.
