Synopsis
Are mental states "in the head"? Or do they intrinsically involve aspects of the subject's physical and social context? This volume presents a number of essays dealing with the compass of the mind. The contributors broach a range of issues with a commmon view that physical and social magnets do act upon mental states. The approaches that run through these papers make the volume challenging to cognitive psychologists, theorists of artificial intelligence, social theorists, and philosophers.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. The contributors to this volume were asked to touch on some aspect of a problem which has been much fought over in recent philosophy. The problem concerns nothing less than the compass of the mind. Are mental states, as it is sometimes put, 'in the head'? Or do they intrinsic ally involve aspects of the subject's physical and social context? The sympathy of the contributors is with the latter context-bound view of mind. They deal with a range of different issues but they do so from that more or less common background. **The covers have light shelf rubbing at the extremities.**. Seller Inventory # 003617
