Abstract

A Physicalist Manifesto is a full treatment of the comprehensive physicalist view that, in some important sense, everything is physical. Andrew Melnyk argues that the view is best formulated by appeal to a carefully worked-out notion of realization, rather than supervenience; that, so formulated, physicalism must be importantly reductionist; that it need not repudiate causal and explanatory claims framed in non-physical language; and that it has the a posteriori epistemic status of a broad-scope scientific hypothesis. Two concluding chapters argue in detail that contemporary science provides no significant empirical evidence against physicalism and some considerable evidence for it. Written in a brisk, candid and exceptionally clear style, this 2003 book should appeal to professionals and students in philosophy of mind, metaphysics and philosophy of science.

Abstract

By 'phenomenal consciousnes' philosophers understand feelings such as pain and desire, but also our conscious perceptual experiences. How it is to have such an awareness is something each person can only know from their own experience. The author takes up a critical position towards the claim of many philosophers that the natural sciences can provide an adequate understanding and explanation of phenomenal consciousness. Unter phänomenalem Bewusstsein versteht man in der Philosophie Empfindungen wie Schmerz und Lust, aber auch unsere bewussten Wahrnehmungserlebnisse. Wie es ist, solch ein Bewusstsein zu haben, weiß jeder nur aus eigener Erfahrung. Der Autor bezieht kritisch Stellung gegen den Anspruch vieler Philosophen, phänomenales Bewusstsein im Rahmen der Naturwissenschaften angemessen verstehen und erklären zu können.

Abstract

We are material beings in a material world, but we are also beings who have experiences and feelings. How can these subjective states be just a matter of matter? This book looks at this question and much more.
