Key issues in the philosophy of mind are explored through contributions from prominent scholars, offering diverse perspectives on topics such as consciousness, perception, and the nature of mental states. Each chapter delves into complex philosophical questions, making it a valuable resource for students and enthusiasts interested in understanding the intricate relationship between mind and body.
This collection of essays from the Royal Institute of Philosophy shows the connections and interrelations between the analytic and hermeneutic strains in German philosophy since Kant, partly to challenge the idea that there are two separate, non-communicating traditions. The distinguished contributors include Robert Solomon writing on Nietzsche, Michael Inwood on Heidegger, P. M. S. Hacker on Frege and Wittgenstein, Christopher Janaway on Schopenhauer, Thomas Uebel on Neurath and the Vienna Circle, and Jay Bernstein on Adorno. The collection is rounded off by a paper by Jürgen Habermas specifically on hermeneutic and analytic philosophy.
This collection of essays provides a timely assessment of the life and work of one of the twentieth century's most original thinkers.
