The Rediscovery of the Mind

The computationalists have probably never had such a powerful challenge as this book. -- Anthony Gottlieb, New York Times Book Review This is as entertaining as serious philosophy gets. -- Theodore Roszak, New Scientist In this major new work, John Searle launches a formidable attack on current orthodoxies in the philosophy of mind. More than anything else, he argues, it is the neglect of consciousness that results in so much barrenness and sterility in psychology, the philosophy of mind, and cognitive science: there can be no study of mind that leaves out consciousness.
