Contemporary Philosophy of Mind: A Contentiously Classical Approach
Cambridge, Mass.: Wiley-Blackwell (1997) Copy BIBTEX
Abstract
This volume is an introduction to contemporary debates in the philosophy of mind. In particular, the author focuses on the controversial "eliminativist" and "instrumentalist" attacks - from philosophers such as of Quine, Dennett, and the Churchlands - on our ordinary concept of mind. In so doing, Rey offers an explication and defense of "mental realism", and shows how Fodor's representational theory of mind affords a compelling account of much of our ordinary mental talk of beliefs, hopes, and desiresAuthor's Profile
