Book Description
The mind-body problem continues to be the focus of many of our philosophical concerns. Matters of Mind tackles how the problem has spanned and how it has changed from the earlier theories of reducing aboutness to empirical cases for physicalism. The theories of perception, property explanation, content and knowledge, reliabilism and the problem of zombies and ghosts are all carefully assessed.
Review
'The six chapters of this well-written book can be read separately, or as a unity leading to Sturgeon's Wait-and-See view in the mind-body debate.' -- Journal of Consciousness Studies
'I recommend the book for anyone who has a hankering for old fashioned philosophy of mind ... Sturgeon is a careful and thorough thinker, which makes for a careful and thorough book.' -- Valerie Hardcastle, Philosophical Books
