His Master’s Voice is the inspiring true story of Brian
McLaughlin’s 38-year career rising through the ranks at iconic
record store HMV, and the personal journey that saw him become one
of the most successful business leaders in the UK. With no topic
off the table, Brian intimately details his turbulent childhood and
the journey that took him from a shop floor assistant with a
passion for music, to the MD of a brand that redefined the high
street and revolutionised the way millions experienced music.
During his time as MD, HMV became the most profitable and most
successful music retailer in the world, with over one million
customers visiting an HMV store each week during its peak. The
chain of stores defined multiple decades of music exploration,
rewrote the rulebook for retail and changed the record industry
forever, turning the once humble record store into a cultural
phenomenon. Throughout His Master’s Voice, Brian speaks
openly and honestly about his life, career and success –
providing a refreshing tell-all account of how he built up a
business in the face of adversity, the role luck has played in his
life, and the work that went into the brand’s unforgettable
ascent to the top. There are tales of loss and broken family ties,
industry-changing moments, boardroom showdowns, big brand
rivalries, and battles against all odds, with the books’ pages
packed full of incomparable life lessons and insider secrets that
are being shared for the very first time.
The study of the mind has always been one of the main
preoccupations of philosophers, and has been a booming area of
research in recent decades, with remarkable advances in psychology
and neuroscience. Oxford University Press now presents the most
authoritative and comprehensive guide ever published to the
philosophy of mind.
An outstanding international team of contributors offer 45
specially written critical surveys of a wide range of topics
relating to the mind. The first two sections cover the place of the
mind in the natural world: its ontological status, how it fits into
the causal fabric of the universe, and the nature of consciousness.
The third section focuses on the much-debated subjects of content
and intentionality. The fourth section examines a variety of mental
capacities, including memory, imagination, and emotion. The fifth
section looks at epistemic issues, in particular regarding
knowledge of one's own and other minds. The volume concludes with a
section on self, personhood, and agency.
The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Mind will be an invaluable
resource for advanced students and scholars of philosophy, and also
for researchers in neighbouring disciplines seeking a high-level
survey of the state of the art in this flourishing field.
