Kim construes the mind-body problem as that of finding a place for the mind in a world that is fundamentally physical. Among other points, he redefines the roles of supervenience and emergence in the discussion of the mind-body problem. Arguing that various contemporary accounts of mental causation are inadequate, he offers his own partially reductionist solution on the basis of a novel model of reduction. Retaining the informal tone of the lecture format, the book is clear yet sophisticated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BRADFORD BOOKS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45212707848245,"sku":"ByrdShop_0262611538","price":226.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780262611534_1bd7ef6a-826b-4507-aa50-f7c29234f8fb.jpg?v=1779905993","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/mind-in-a-physical-world-an-essay-on-the-mindbody-problem-and-mental-causation-representation-and-mind-9780262611534","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
