Book Description
Helen Steward puts forward a radical critique of the foundations of contemporary philosophy of mind, arguing that it relies too heavily on insecure assumptions about the sorts of things there are in the mind--events, processes, and states. She offers a fresh investigation of these three categories, clarifying the distinctions between them, and argues that the category of state has been very widely and seriously misunderstood.
Review
"Steward's carefully constructed argument challenges the long-standing core assumptions of identity theoriests as well as the more recent assumptions of eliminativists and functionalists. Steward's text should be required reading for anyone with a serious interest in understanding the implications of assumptions that may have been taken for granted for far too long." -- Choice
