## Description

When first published, John Heil's introduction quickly became a widely used guide for students with little or no background in philosophy to central issues of philosophy of mind. Heil provided an introduction free of formalisms, technical trappings, and specialized terminology. He offered clear arguments and explanations, focusing on the ontological basis of mentality and its place in the material world. The book concluded with a systematic discussion of questions the book raises--and a sketch of a unified metaphysics of mind--thus inviting scholarly attention while providing a book very well suited for an introductory course.
This Third Edition builds on these strengths, and incorporates new material on theories of consciousness, computationalism, the language of thought, and animal minds as well as other emerging areas of research. With an updated reading list at the end of each chapter and a revised bibliography, this new edition will again make it the indispensable primer for anyone seeking better understanding of the central metaphysical issues in philosophy of mind.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrific introduction to the subject.
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 4 May 2016*

Lucid, highly readable, splendid introduction to the subject. I'm a layman, so it was a, shall we say, measured read for me. But Heil is brilliant at taking you through the subject without dumbing down. I really enjoyed this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clear Introduction
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 18 November 2016*

A commendably clear and - as far as I can tell - comprehensive account of the current state-of-play in this most important area of thought. I salute the author's effort to keep things comprehensible.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Stars
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 17 May 2017*

Mostly excellent
