Foundations of Mind collects the essays which established Tyler Burge
as a leading philosopher of mind. This second volume of his papers
offers nineteen pieces published between 1975 and 2003, including the
influential series that develops anti-individualism. Burge contributes
three essay-length postscripts, a substantial new paper on
consciousness, and an introduction which surveys his work in this
area. The foundations that Burge reflects on are conditions in the
individual or the wider world that determine the natures of mental
kinds. The conditions include causal, social, psychological
conditions, and conditions of phenomenal consciousness. Some of these
are basic conditions under which minds are possible. The book is
essential reading for philosophers of mind, and should engage a wider
public interested in basic philosophical issues.
