Course Description
This course covers central issues in the philosophy of mind such as the relationship between minds and brains (e.g., dualism, behaviourism, physicalism, functionalism, and eliminativism); the nature of mental states such as beliefs, desires, and sensations; how mental states represent features of the world; and the relationship between the first-person perspective on oneself and the third-person scientific perspective on the mind.
