Narrow Content
Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press. Edited by John Hawthorne (2018)
Abstract
Can there be 'narrow' mental content, that is entirely determined by the goings-on inside the head of the thinker? This book argues not, and defends instead a thoroughgoing externalism: the entanglement of our minds with the external world runs so deep that no internal component of mentality can easily be cordoned off.Author Profiles
