Evolution, Consciousness, and the Internality of the Mind
In Peter Carruthers & A. Chamberlain (eds.), Evolution and the Human Mind. Cambridge University Press (2000)
| Abstract | The problem of consciousness seems to arise from experience itself. As we shall consider in more detail below, we are strongly disposed to contrast conscious experience with the physical states or events by which we take it to be realized. This contrast gives rise to dualism and other problems of mind and body. In this chapter I argue that these problems can usefully be considered in the perspective of evolution | |||||||||
