David Rosenthal is one of the leading contributors to the philosophical study of consciousness. This volume gathers together his work on the subject from the past two decades, and represents the definitive presentation of his influential theory of consciousness as higher-order thought. Two of the essays appear here for the first time; there is also a substantial new introduction, drawing out the connections between the essays and highlighting their implications.
David Rosenthal's Consciousness and Mind presents us with the most plausible higher-order representationalist account in the market. The book is engaging and very clearly written.
