Rethinking consciousness
pp. 127-171
Abstract
While the new mysterians claim we have good reasons to believe that the problem of consciousness will never be solved, others believe that it has not been approached in the right way. This chapter attempts to illustrate how many thinkers believe that the problem of consciousness only seems so hard because we have not thought in the radical new ways that (according to them) its solution requires. The chapter conveys some of the ways through which these radical researchers believe we must rethink the problem of consciousness.
