This book explores the methodological strategies for linking
philosophy and neuroscience concerning the study of the conscious
brain. The author focuses on four distinct methods for relating
these two academic disciplines: isolationist, reductionist,
neurophenomenological, and non-reductionist. After analyzing the
pros and cons of these approaches, Steven S. Gouveia applies them
to the concept of Qualia and Information to understand how the
metaphilosophical assumptions of each approach influence the
definitions of those specific concepts. Gouveia argues for an
approach that conceives the interdisciplinarity of both philosophy
and neuroscience, in a particular and sound methodology, offering
empirical examples of the explanatory power of this methodology
over the others. Additionally, he shows how the metaphilosophical
assumptions of each methodology-usually taken by researchers
implicitly and unconsciously-influence their own approach to the
methodological problem.
