About this course
This course will introduce students to some of the core issues in philosophy of mind, such as the mind/body problem, the nature of consciousness, intentionality, embodiment, enactivism, the self, and the relationship between mental phenomena and the physical world. We?ll ask questions like: What does it mean to have a mind? Could there be minds without physical bodies? How are our minds and brains related? Throughout the course we will examine some of the central issues in philosophy of mind, including dualism, philosophical behaviorism, physicalism, functionalism, and eliminative materialism. We?ll explore some non-western theories of mind, such as the Buddhist belief that there is no self and that the mind is an ever-changing, non-physical stream of awareness.
