- Academic, Scholarly, Research, Philosophy
- A highly original introduction to contemporary thinking about the relationship between mind and science.
- This is the first comprehensive examination of Dennett’s ideas on the nature of thought, consciousness, free will, and the significance of Darwinism.
- Examines Dennett’s unique response to the question of when and how science should affect the conception that we have of ourselves.
- Casts new light on specific controversies: Could robots ever think, feel, and enjoy freedom? Does Dennett really explain consciousness? Are mental states real or merely ‘useful fictions’? Do we have free will? Is the self a ‘centre of narrative gravity’?
