Advances in Experimental Philosophy of Mind
Description
The past decade has witnessed an exciting (and controversial) new approach to
philosophy: Experimental philosophers aim to supplement, and perhaps to
supplant, traditional philosophical approaches by employing empirical methods
from the social sciences. In Advances in Experimental Philosophy of Mind,
leading experimental philosophers apply these methods to questions about the
nature of the mind, the self, consciousness, moral judgment, and concepts. By
bringing empirical methods to bear on key issues, Advances in Experimental
Philosophy of Mind pushes the debates forward, casting new insight on
perennial problems. This is an essential resource for professors, graduate
students, and advanced undergraduates interested in either philosophy of mind
or the burgeoning field of experimental philosophy. Read more
