Taylor & Francis The Concept of Mind 60th Anniversary Edition
Book SynopsisFirst published in 1949, Gilbert Ryleâs The Concept of Mind is one of the classics of twentieth-century philosophy. Described by Ryle as a âsustained piece of analytical hatchet-workâ on Cartesian dualism, The Concept of Mind is a radical and controversial attempt to jettison once and for all what Ryle called âthe ghost in the machineâ: Descartesâ argument that mind and body are two separate entities. This sixtieth anniversary edition includes a substantial commentary by Julia Tanney and is essential reading for new readers interested not only in the history of analytic philosophy but in its power to challenge major currents in philosophy of mind and language today.Trade Review'This new edition of Ryle’s classic work, with a substantial critical study by Julia Tanney, will make possible a re-assessment of Ryle and of the revolutionary potential of The Concept of Mind. Tanney’s treatment of Ryle is complex and subtle, and opens up important new ways of thinking in philosophy of mind and philosophy of language.' - Cora Diamond, University of Virginia, USATable of ContentsCritical Commentary, Julia Tanney Introduction 1. Descartes’ Myth 2. Knowing How and Knowing That 3. The Will 4. Emotion 5. Dispositions and Occurrences 6. Self-Knowledge 7. Sensation and Observation 8. Imagination 9. The Intellect 10.
