How can the human mind represent the external world? What is is thought, and can it be studied scientifically? Does it help to think of the mind as a kind of machine?
Tim Crane sets out to answer questions like these in a lively and straightforward way, presuming no prior knowledge of philosophy or related disciplines. Since its first publication in 1995, The Mechanical Mind has introduced thousands of people to some of the most important ideas in contemporary philosophy of mind. Tim Crane explains some fundamental ideas that cut across philosophy of mind, artificial intelligence and cognitive science: what the mind-body problem is; what a computer is and how it works; what thoughts are and how computers and minds might have them. He examines different models of the mind from dualist to eliminativist, and questions whether there can be thought without language and whether the mind is subject to the same causal lsaws as natural phenomena. The result is a fascinating exploration of the theories and arguments surrounding the notions of thought and representation.
The edition has been fully revised and updated, and includes a new chapter on consciousness and new sections on modularity and evolutionary psychology. There are also guides for further reading, a chronology and a new glossary of terms such as mentalese, connectionism and the homonculus fallacy. The Mechanical Mind is accessible to the general reader as well as students, and anyone interested in the mechanism of our minds.
不是一本典型的心灵哲学导论,但的确是一本以心灵以及意识问题为主题的入门读物。而处处都有鹤先生自己的洞见,以及行文非常清晰严谨,是哲学写作的典范。有空一定把第三版找来读读。
评分Interesting and accessible!
评分非常通俗易懂的心灵哲学入门书。作者主要在探讨心灵表征的问题(什么是表征,心灵如何表征,计算机是否可以表征,计算机和心灵的区别是什么,计算机是否可以视为可以能思考的机器,诸如此类),用词非常口语化但也不失严谨,举例繁多且大多例子都很自娱自乐。反正是乐呵呵的一本书 :)
