PL 397 - Philosophy of Mind

(3.00 cr.)

Prerequisite: PL 201 and one additional PL 200-level course. Philosophy of mind is concerned with the very nature of thinking: the functions of the intellect and its metaphysical status; the relation between mind and brain; the differentiation between reason, emotion, sense perception, and will. It has been a constant concern of philosophers since Plato and Aristotle, up until analytic philosophy.
