Advances in Neurophilosophy: Advances in Experimental Philosophy

Editat de Nora Heinzelmann
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 feb 2024
Bringing together recent case studies and insights into current developments, this collection introduces philosophers to a range of experimental methods from neuroscience. Chapters provide a comprehensive survey of the discipline, covering neuroimaging such as EEG and MRI, causal interventions like brain stimulation, advanced statistical methods, and approaches drawing on research into the development of human individuals and humankind. A team of experts combine clear explanations of complex methods with reports of cutting-edge research, advancing our understanding of how these tools can be applied to further philosophical inquiries into agency, emotions, enhancement, perception, personhood and more. With contributions organised by neuroscientific method, this volume provides an accessible overview for students and scholars coming to neurophilosophy for the first time, presenting a range of topics from responsibility to metacognition.

Recenzii

This fine volume is an excellent introduction to the emerging interdisciplinary field of neurophilosophy. It offers detailed accounts of key neuroscientific methods as applied to central philosophical problems, illustrated with cutting-edge research. A must-have for anyone interested in what neuroscience has to offer to philosophy
Nora Heinzelmann's collection contains a great selection of contributions from an important field of philosophical thinking. Highly recommended, both for an overview over the entire field of Neurophilosophy, and for in-depth knowledge about specific topics and methods.
Philosophy asks foundational questions about mind, mentation, and agency, and the methods and results from neuroscientific inquiry can help us make progress in addressing these questions. Though neurophilosophy is a relatively young field, its potential to deliver important new philosophical insights is evident throughout these pages.
