Excellent philosophy of mind text

I have a masters in Philosophy, through my education I read this book. I have since returned to it on several occasions for pleasure reading. This book contains some excellent ground level and mid level reading materials on a variety of identity theory, skepticism, epiphenomenal etc... topics.

A good introduction to theory of mind

I read The Place of Mind for a university philsophy course. I found the book to be a good introduction to various theories of mind. The articles cover a number of areas, including Dualism, materialism, subjectivity and AI. I recommend the book to anyone who is looking for a good overview of theory of mind.
