What is the relationship between mind and matter? Can science unravel the mystery of consciousness? How can our thoughts represent things in the world? Are computers really intelligent? "Philosophy of Mind" probes some of the big questions raised by this philosophical current. In this book, Bárbara Gail Montero presents the main mental experiments used by philosophers to explore the nature of the mind and the relationship between mind and body, the so-called "mind-body problem", and explores the philosophical enigmas associated with sensation, perception, cognition and emotion. Without losing sight of the contemporary philosophical debate, the book also explores the cross-cultural roots of the philosophy of mind and its connections with psychology, neuroscience, evolutionary biology and physics.
