Content and ConsciousnessRoutledge, 4. jan. 2002 - 214 síður First published in 2002. In this pioneering book, Daniel Dennett sets out clearly what he believed constituted a genuine analysis of the mind. His work over the last twenty years and more, culminating in his major study, Consciousness Explained, has increased rather than diminished the power of his first book. This edition also includes the 1986 preface which places the book in the context of recent work in the area. |
