Book Overview

"Marked by many sparkling insights." -- The Modern Schoolman. In this trailblazing collection, Flanagan pursues essential philosophical questions from new angles, bringing in the latest insights of neuroscience, cognitive science, and psychiatry. He explores questions such as whether the conscious mind can be explained scientifically, whether dreams are self-expressive or just noise, and the nature of psychological phenomena such as multiple personality disorder and false memory syndrome.
