EBOOK Mind A Brief Introduction
Opis
In Mind: An Introduction, for the first time John Searle offers a general introduction to the philosophy of the mind. Giving a broad survey of all the major issues under discussion in the field, including philosophical issues in cognitive science and neurobiology, Searle argues for his own distinctive point of view. He leads the reader through the variety of theories that reduce the mind to aspects that can be fully explained by physics, and then concludes with his own view that such reductionist theories ignore or cannot adequately explain the most fundamental aspect of the mind - subjective consciousness.
