How does mind fit into nature? Philosophy has long been concerned
with this question. No contemporary philosopher has done more to
clarify it than Jaegwon Kim, a distinguished analytic philosopher
specializing in metaphysics and philosophy of mind. With new
contributions from an outstanding line-up of eminent scholars, this
volume focuses on issues raised in Kim's work. The chapters cluster
around two themes: first, exclusion, supervenience, and reduction,
with attention to the causal exclusion argument for which Kim is
widely celebrated; and second, phenomenal consciousness and qualia,
with attention to the prospects for a functionalist account of the
mental. This volume is sure to become a major focus of attention
and research in the disciplines of metaphysics and philosophy of
mind.
