The
Character of Mind: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Mind
by Colin McGinn
Customer Comments
Excellent and Comprehensive, A reader
from Newtown Square, PA, Nov 26, 1998
This is a simple (though not simpleminded)
introduction to the philosophy of mind (includes such topics as "consciousness",
"self", "mental phenomena", etc.). McGinn writes eloquently and uses interesting
metaphors (e.g., refers to the brain as "that greyish dumpling"). It is
highly recommended to the interested person who wants a comprehensive
overview of this lively area of contemporary philosophy.
