This second edition provides an expanded treatment of classical as well as current topics, with many additional readings and a new section on mental content. The writers included range from Aristotle, Descartes, and William James to such leading contemporary thinkers as Noam Chomsky, Paul and Patricia Churchland, and Jaegwon Kim. The 83 selections provide a thorough survey of five areas of enduring controversy: the mind-body problem, mental causation, mental content, innatism and modularity, and associationism and connectionism. Each section includes an introductory overview of the topic by the editors as well as suggestions for further reading. <br /> <br /> The selections added for the second edition serve both to enhance historical coverage and to update contemporary issues, especially in areas of current empirical research such as connectionism and innatism. Changes to historical coverage include a wider array of readings on classic positions as well as neglected precursors to views often considered recent innovations. The section on the mind-body problem in particular has been greatly expanded, including numerous selections on consciousness and phenomenal qualities (qualia). The book is ideal for both undergraduate and graduate courses in philosophy and the history of psychology and will be useful both as a reference for researchers and as a self-contained survey for the general reader. 1126187 1992 The Philosophy of Mind, 2nd Edition: Classical Problems/Contemporary Issues (Bradford Books) total:2|5:0|4:2|3:0|2:0|1:0| 2 8 11 1 0 0 false false Thu Oct 23 12:04:32 -0700 2008 Thu Oct 23 12:04:46 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sat Oct 31 06:51:54 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 31 06:51:54 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Oct 20 10:20:57 -0700 2009 Tue Oct 20 10:21:05 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Aug 22 11:33:52 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 22 11:33:52 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Aug 08 16:24:56 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 08 17:37:15 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jan 17 17:53:12 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 17 21:12:13 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu May 15 01:19:06 -0700 2008 Thu May 15 01:19:06 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sun Mar 23 18:23:48 -0700 2008 Sun Mar 23 18:23:48 -0700 2008 0 0 true false Wed Jan 02 12:00:22 -0800 2008 Wed Jan 02 12:00:24 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Thu Jun 14 08:00:39 -0700 2007 Thu Jun 14 08:00:39 -0700 2007 0 0 false false Fri Jun 08 12:04:55 -0700 2007 Wed Jun 13 09:18:56 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=2489797
