mind & consciousness philosophers

Written on March 15, 2009

The list of philosophers in Mind and Consciousness: 5 Questions includes some familiar names, and some not so much. So I went through the list, linking to the home page for each author, with a representative book title, trying to get the most recent “mind-related” book for each.
