Philosophy of mind brains, consciousness, and thinking machines
(DVD)

24 lectures (30 min. per lecture).

Taught by: Professor Patrick Grim, State University of New York at Stony Brook.

"Questions about the nature of the mind are among the most hotly debated in philosophy today. Today, we are beginning to see the true complexity of this pursuit, as philosophers draw on the latest evidence from neuroscience, psychology, artificial intelligence, linguistics, and other fields to probe still deeper into the inner workings of the mind ... Philosophy of Mind expertly sorts out the various approaches to understanding the mind, giving the pros and cons of each in an engrossing survey of complex and often controversial intellectual terrain. The course articulates these intellectual options in service of capturing the excitement of intellectual discussion, never to lay down a single dogmatic position" - taken from the publisher's website.
