Tillfälligt slut

Examines eight recalcitrant problems which are fervently discussed by philosophers of mind and action theorists today. Some topics addressed include: Do orthodox theories of mind make sense? Could mental events be physical? What are some of the Freudian models of mental life? Do we control our behavior through volition? and Can our mental states be active or passive? among others. Of interest to all philosophy students and scholars, particularly in philosophy of mind and action theory.
