Persons And Their Minds

Explore the intricate relationship between mind and personhood in Persons And Their Minds by Elmer W. Sprague. Published in 1999 by Taylor & Francis Inc, this thought-provoking paperback spans 206 pages and delves into the philosophical debates surrounding mindism and personism. Sprague compellingly argues for the importance of placing persons at the heart of the philosophy of mind, challenging conventional notions and exploring functionalism as articulated in the early works of Jerry Fodor. This book also critically examines various attempts to undermine the concept of person, making it essential reading for anyone interested in the philosophy of mind and the nature of thought. Enhance your understanding of these complex theories and their implications for our understanding of consciousness and identity.
