Book Description
This volume contains a collection of the most important essays that Sydney Shoemaker has written on the interrelated issues in the philosophy of mind and metaphysics. These essays not only show care and precision in his argument, they also reveal a substantial shift in Professor Shoemaker's position to a form of materialism.
Synopsis
This is an expanded edition of Sydney Shoemaker's seminal collection of his work on interrelated issues in the philosophy of mind and metaphysics. It reproduces all of the original papers, many of which are now regarded as classics, and includes four papers published since the first edition appeared in 1984. Themes include the nature of self-knowledge and self-reference, personal identity, persistence over time, properties, mental states, and perceptual experience. A number of the papers, including 'Self-Reference and Self-Awareness', 'Persons and Their Pasts', 'Causality and Properties', and 'The Inverted Spectrum', have remained at the centre of discussion of their topics. Several of the essays in the original collection discuss the ways in which causal considerations enter into the individuation of properties, and three of the added essays - 'Causal and Metaphysical Necessity', 'Realization and Mental Causation', and 'On What There Are' - deal with related themes. The neo-Lockean view of personal identity presented in 'Persons and Their Pasts' is developed with a different emphasis in the added paper 'Self and Substance'.
Identity, Cause, and Mind's reappearance will be warmly welcomed by scholars and students alike."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
