Mind and Cognition. ( An Anthology

First published in 1990, Mind and Cognition: An Anthology is now firmly established as a popular teaching apparatus for upper level undergraduate and graduate courses in the philosophy of mind.


â??Since it appeared almost 20 years ago, Mind and Cognition has been the premiere anthology in contemporary philosophy of mind. This judiciously updated edition secures its position for the foreseeable future.â??
Shaun Nichols, University of Arizona

â??An enormously useful collection, including representative articles not only on the multitude of positions before and after the â??cognitive revolutionâ??, but also on topics such as the emotions, animal minds and distinctively perceptual content that have only recently begun to receive the attention they deserve. An ideal text for both introductory and graduate study of the many topics.â??
