Philosophy of Mind

[Under Construction]

The philosophy of mind is the study of the nature of mind, especially as it relates to the physical world.

Topics in the philosophy of mind include problems of consciousness, mental causation, mental content, and mind-body relations. Much of the work in contemporary philosophy of mind overlaps with work in the cognitive sciences including neuroscience and artificial intelligence.
