Opis

The Oxford Handbook of the Philosophy of Consciousness provides the most comprehensive overview of current philosophical research on consciousness. Featuring contributions from some of the most prominent experts in the field, it explores the wide range of types of consciousness there may be, the many psychological phenomena with which consciousness interacts, and the various views concerning the ultimate relationship between consciousness and physical reality. It is an essential and authoritative resource for anyone working in philosophy of mind or interested in states of consciousness.

Recenzje

... an excellent, very comprehensive survey and discussion of recent work in the philosophy of consciousness, with contributions from philosophers, cognitive scientists, and neuroscientists, in the major aspects of an area with ramifications at least into epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics. I strongly recommend it.
