520 8  Could robots be genuinely intelligent? Could they be 
       conscious? Could there be zombies? Prompted by these 
       questions Robert Kirk introduces the main problems of 
       consciousness and sets out a new approach to solving them.
       He starts by discussing behaviourism, Turing's test of 
       intelligence and Searle's famous Chinese Room argument, 
       and goes on to examine dualism - the idea that 
       consciousness requires something beyond the physical - 
       together with its opposite, physicalism. Probing the idea 
       of zombies, he concludes they are logically impossible. 
       Having presented the central problems, he sketches his 
       solution: a version of functionalism, according to which 
       consciousness consists in the performance of functions. 
       While there is wide agreement among philosophers about 
       what the main problems of consciousness are, there is 
       little agreement on how to go about solving them. With 
       this powerful case for his version of functionalism, Kirk 
       offers an engaging introduction to both the problems and a
       possible solution.
