What characterizes the mind? This is the question that runs through the entire book. The author seeks the answer with a boldness rarely found in philosophical writing, covering the main topics of the philosophy of mind in an accessible and stimulating introduction: the body and the mind, the nature of knowledge, the relationship between thought and language, action, being, and in particular, consciousness and the difficulty of reconciling the two very different perspectives generated by introspection and the observation of other people. This revised and updated edition of what is already a classic adds three chapters: consciousness, cognitive science, and mental content, incorporating the most recent philosophical developments in these areas.
