This volume brings together a collection of essays that explore in
a new way how unacknowledged moral concerns are integral to debates
in the philosophy of mind.The radical suggestion of the book is
that we can make sense of the internal dynamics and cultural
significance of these debates only when we understand the moral
forces that shape them. Drawing inspiration from a variety of
traditions including Wittgenstein, Lacan, phenomenology and
analytic philosophy, the authors address a wide range of topics
including the mind/body-problem, the problem of other minds,
subjectivity and objectivity, the debates on mindreading,
naturalism, reductive physicalism, representationalism and the
'E-turn'; Dennett's heterophenomenology, McDowell's neo-Kantianism,
Wittgenstein's 'private language' considerations and his notion of
an 'attitude towards a soul'; repression, love, conscience, the
difficulties of self-understanding, and the methods and aims of
philosophy. Through a combination of detailed, immanent criticism
and bold constructive work, the authors move the discussion to a
new level, beyond humanistic or conservative critiques of
naturalism and scientism.
