Content:
What distinguishes humankind from other species? A leading candidate is our capability for mutual understanding ('theory of mind'), our ability to ascribe thoughts, desires, and feelings to one another. This volume collects essays by Alvin Goldman, many of which have played a major role in crystallizing the 'simulation', or 'empathising', account of mindreading and showing how it is confirmed by recent findings in psychology and cognitive neuroscience.
