Description
The Rediscovery of the Mind by John R. Searle
A major new work that challenges current orthodoxies in the philosophy of mind, Searle argues that neglecting consciousness is at the heart of many barren areas in psychology and cognitive science.
Searle refutes materialism and dualism, instead proposing a theory of consciousness that emphasizes its centrality to understanding mental functioning. He also critiques cognitive science and offers an alternative approach that prioritizes the role of consciousness.
