In this volume, Dennett isconfronted by colleagues and critics, from philosophy, biology andpsychology. His reply constitutes an extensive essay whichclarifies, and develops further, central themes in his philosophy.The debate ranges over Dennett's whole corpus, but specialattention is given to his major work on consciousness,Consciousness Explained. The volume includes a critical assessement of Dennett's views onbehaviouralism and the subjectivity of consciousness, the nature ofperception and mental representation, intentional laws andcomputational psychology, the rationality of thought, culture as avirus, the architecture of mind, and the role of artifacts inthinking. Also included is an introduction to Dennett's philosophyand a full bibliography of his publications. |
