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. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Consciousness.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85031235 650 0 Functionalism (Psychology)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85052323 650 0 Zombies|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001600|xMiscellanea.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99001944 650 0 Robots|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85114637 |xMiscellanea.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001944 650 0 Other minds (Theory of knowledge)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85096028 650 7 Consciousness.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/875441 650 7 Functionalism (Psychology)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/936097 650 7 Zombies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1184595 650 7 Miscellanea.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1353832 650 7 Robots.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1099038 650 7 Other minds (Theory of knowledge)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1048905 650 7 PHILOSOPHY|xMovements|xHumanism.|2bisacsh 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Trivia and miscellanea.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1921748 776 08 |iPrint version:|aKirk, Robert, 1933-|tRobots, zombies and us.|dLondon, UK ; New York, NY, USA : Bloomsbury Academic, an imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing, Plc, [2016] |z9781474286589|w(DLC) 2016038067|w(OCoLC)949819829 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1413538|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
