This book is based on an in-depth filmed conversation between Howard Burton and neurophilosopher Pat Churchland, UC San Diego. Pat Churchland has done extensive research in the fields of philosophy of neuroscience, philosophy of the mind and neuroethics. During this mind-stretching conversation Pat explores how the brain works, how we are able to represent the external world of objects and our inner world of thoughts, self and consciousness. This carefully-edited book includes an introduction, Of Mice and Men, and questions for discussion at the end of each chapter: I. Playing with Brains - Dissecting brains and meeting Francis Crick II. Neuropioneers - Ruffling philosophical feathers III. Sociological Fault Lines - Mind vs. brain IV. Connecting Horizontally - Investigating “philosophy of mind”? V. Touching a Nerve - Spreading the message VI. Social Relevance - Explorations of morality through biology VII. Free Will - An age-old quandary resurfaces VIII. Eliminative Materialism - What it means and doesn’t mean IX. Consciousness - Towards progress? X. Summing Up - Some key questions Ideas Roadshow Conversations Series This book is part of an expanding series of 100+ Ideas Roadshow conversations, each one presenting a wealth of candid insights from a leading expert in a focused yet informal setting to give non-specialists a uniquely accessible window into frontline research and scholarship that wouldn't otherwise be encountered through standard lectures and textbooks.
