Oxfam bookshop preston how can the baffling problems of phenomenal experience be accounted for? in this discourse fred dretske argues that to achieve an understanding of the mind it is not enough to understand the biological machinery by means of which the mind does its job"naturalizing the mind" skilfully a representational theory of the qualitative, the phenomenal, the what-it-is-like aspects of the mind that have defied traditional forms of naturalismcentral to dretske's approach is the claim that the phenomenal aspects of perceptual experiences are one and the same as external, real world properties that experience represents objects as havingchapter five addresses anticipated philosophical objections to the theoryone must understand what the mind's job is and how this task can be performed by a physical system - the nervous systemdretske's theory of naturalistic representationalism is an approach to the study of consciousness that can pin down the slippery first-person aspect of our sensory and affective lifecombined with an evolutionary account of sensory representation, the result is a completely naturalistic account of phenomenal consciousnessit distinguishes, in wholly naturalistic terms, between what we experience (reality) and how we experience it (appearance)see oxfam website for delivery information read morein the first four chapters (the original jean nicod lectures), dretske focuses on what naturalistic representationalism reveals about introspective knowledge, intentionality, qualia, inverted spectra, the biological function of conscious experience, and the possibility of knowing what alien experiences are likethe theory establishes a framework within which subjectivity can be studied objectively, explains the peculiar authority we enjoy about our own mental states, and provides a biologically plausible answer to questions about the function or purpose of consciousness

Along the way, we are led to understand the nature of minds and conscious states of mind in a way that avoids both reductionism (the idea that mental is reducible to the non-mental) and dualism (the idea that mental substances or properties differ dramatically from physical substances and properties)oxfam bookshop preston what are the most fundamental features of the world? do minds stand outside the natural order? is a unified picture of mental and physical reality possible? the mind in nature provides a staunchly realist account of the world as a unified system incorporating both the mental and the physicalmartin, an original and influential exponent of 'ontologically serious' metaphysics, echoes locke's dictum that 'all things that exist are only particulars', and argues that properties are powerful qualitiesmartin emphasizes the importance of non-conscious 'vegetative' systems, which provide clear examples of intentionality in the form of representational usehe also spells out the implications of this view for philosophical conceptions of causation, intentionality, consciousness, and the mind-body problemsee oxfam website for delivery information read morethe slide from representational use to consciousness involves a change in the material of use, but not the form of representationa concluding chapter provides an argument for the view that an ontology of particular substances and properties leads ineluctably to monism: the bus we board with locke takes us directly to the world of spinoza and einstein

mind in action offers an alternative approachoxfam bookshop preston bede rundle challenges the quasi-mechanical view of human action that is dominant in contemporary philosophy of minda materialist view of the mind and a causal theory of action fit together conveniently: the notion of action as caused by thoughts and desires allows philosophers to accommodate explanations of action within a framework that is congenial to scientific understanding, and the conception of mind as physical enables them to make sense of causal transactions between the two domainscompelling reasons are given for demoting causation and for shifting the emphasis to the role played by behaviour in accounts of thought, belief, desire, intention, freedom, and other key conceptsrundle's approach sheds fresh light not only on human behaviour but also on animal mentality, and has important implications for the feasibility of current programmes in cognitive sciencesee oxfam website for delivery information read more
