title: Explaining the Mind: Problems, Problems creator: Harnad, Stevan subject: Behavioral Neuroscience subject: Cognitive Psychology subject: Dynamical Systems subject: Philosophy of Mind description: The mind/body problem is the feeling/function problem: How and why do feeling systems feel? The problem is not just "hard" but insoluble (unless one is ready to resort to telekinetic dualism). Fortunately, the "easy" problems of cognitive science (such as the how and why of categorization and language) are not insoluble. Five books (by Damasio, Edelman/Tononi, McGinn, Tomasello and Fodor) are reviewed in this context. publisher: New York Academy of Sciences date: 2001 type: Journal (Paginated) type: PeerReviewed format: text/html identifier: http://cogprints.org/1623/1/bookrev.htm identifier: Harnad, Stevan (2001) Explaining the Mind: Problems, Problems.
