This volume is a collection of fourteen essays by leading
philosophers on issues concerning the nature, existence, and our
knowledge of animal minds. The nature of animal minds has been a
topic of interest to philosophers since the origins of philosophy,
and recent years have seen significant philosophical engagement
with the subject. However, there is no volume that represents the
current state of play in this important and growing field. The
purpose of this volume is to highlight the state of the debate. The
issues which are covered include whether and to what degree animals
think in a language or in iconic structures, possess concepts, are
conscious, self-aware, metacognize, attribute states of mind to
others, and have emotions, as well as issues pertaining to our
knowledge of and the scientific standards for attributing mental
states to animals.
