This book is an introduction to some of the current questions and ideas in the philosophy of mind, which offers an overall but critical account of some of the issues considered to be the most relevant in the 21st century. Its aim is to combine philosophical investigation and methods of enquiry of mental concepts with empirical, neuro-scientific evidence about the workings of the physical brain. It is about the pursuit of the self, consciousness, where it is, and how it emerges from brain states, how it feels, and the self's relationship with and to the external world.
