Focusing on the mind-body problem, Jaegwon Kim explores the challenges posed by mental causation and consciousness to contemporary physicalism. He systematically examines what can be claimed about physicalism after decades of debate, questioning how minds can exert causal influence in a physical realm and whether consciousness can be fully explained within a physicalist framework. Kim's work represents a significant contribution to ongoing discussions in the philosophy of mind, aiming to clarify the relationship between mental states and physical phenomena.
