Feminist Philosophy of Mind

Beschreibung

This pioneering book offers a fresh treatment of many issues in philosophy of mind by applying a diverse range of feminist perspectives. As the first collection of its kind, Feminist Philosophy of Mind defines the content, scope, and methods of this emerging field. Each of its twenty chapters enlarges our understanding of the mind by considering the social contexts of minds. Topics pursued include personal identity, mental content, other minds, artificial intelligence, gender, race, sexual orientation, emotion, memory, perception, empathy, agency, trauma, embodiment, and others. Readers will discover new and expanded responses to timeless questions about the mind.
