Psychology aims to give us a scientific account of how the mind
works. But what does it mean to have a science of the mental, and
what sort of picture of the mind emerges from our best
psychological theories? This book addresses these philosophical
puzzles in a way that is accessible to readers with little or no
background in psychology or neuroscience. Using clear and detailed
case studies and drawing on up-to-date empirical research, it
examines perception and action, the link between attention and
consciousness, the modularity of mind, how we understand other
minds, and the influence of language on thought, as well as the
relationship between mind, brain, body, and world. The result is an
integrated and comprehensive overview of much of the architecture
of the mind, which will be valuable for both students and
specialists in philosophy, psychology, and cognitive science.
