Daniel Dennett: Story Life and Works of a Philosopher Darwinist
No Customer Reviews
Daniel Clement Dennett was a towering figure in contemporary Anglo-American philosophy, renowned for his intellectual audacity and his relentless pursuit of clarity in the face of complex questions. His major areas of research centered on the philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and evolutionary biology, interconnected by his staunchly naturalistic perspective. Dennett rejected dualistic explanations of consciousness, instead championing a materialist, computational approach wherein the mind arises from the intricate workings of the brain. Dennett's contributions extended beyond the theoretical. With a commitment to bridging philosophical inquiry and empirical science, he played a major role in establishing the field of cognitive science, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration. His fascination with artificial intelligence led him to explore the capacities and limitations of machines as potential models for understanding the human mind.
