It begins by considering the dualistic view, frequently taken for granted by students, that words like "belief," "anger," and "jealousy" refer to a realm quite distinct from the physical world, and notes the difficulties associated with this view as well as why many find it compelling. The book then describes six further major views of mind alternative to dualism that have been developed by psychologists, philosophers, and neuroscientists: Some claim that such words are just about behavior. Some claim that such words are theoretical constructs, like "quarks" in physics. Some identify the mind with the brain. Or with a kind of program in the brain, like the software in a computer. Some think there is nothing to which such words refer. Some think mental talk reflects nothing but convention"-- 0aConsciousness. 0aPsychology. 7aPSYCHOLOGY / General.91272381 aWallach, Michael A.9213501 a= C.1 SDU cGBE2lcc c110250d110250 00102lcc406BF0311 W187 S2013708CGB9284610aSDUbSDUcGEN3d2025-10-15e2l0oBF311 W187 S 2013p1000383566r2025-10-15 00:00:00tC.1w2025-10-15yGBE
