A Journey Through 20th Century Philosophy
Covering the ideas of Bertrand Russell, Gilbert Ryle, Saul Kripke, John Searle and others. This book considers the 20th century attempts of analytic philosophy to base philosophy on logical atomism and on science, assessing their strengths and ultimate limitations in relation to notions of the self, mind and morality. In these areas the notion of the isolated atom in a contingent world breaks down as a realistic model, and so to reconsider the position of philosophical discourse in our society moving forward we need a new ontological foundation that better captures what we mean by persons as embodied minds.
The Concept of Mind
This now-classic work challenges what Ryle calls philosophy's "official theory, " the Cartesian "myth" of the separation of mind and matter. Ryle's linguistic analysis remaps the conceptual geography of mind, not so much solving traditional philosophical problams as dissolving them into the mere consequences of misguided language. His plain language and essentially simple purpose put him in the tradition of Locke, Berkeley, Mill, and Russell - philisophers whose best work, like Ryle's, has become a part of our general literature.

Dilemmas
This book shows that the conflicts that arise from everyday ways of thinking are not dilemmas as they appear to be.
The Concept of Mind
The Concept of Mind by philosopher Gilbert Ryle argues that "mind" is "a philosophical illusion hailing chiefly from René Descartes and sustained by logical errors and 'category mistakes' which have become habitual." The work has been cited as having "put the final nail in the coffin of Cartesian dualism," and has been seen as a founding document in the philosophy of mind, which received professional recognition as a distinct and important branch of philosophy only after 1950. This now-classic work challenges what Ryle calls philosophy's "official theory," the Cartesians "myth" of the separation of mind and matter. Ryle's linguistic analysis remaps the conceptual geography of mind. His plain language and essentially simple purpose place him in the traditioin of Locke, Berkeley, Mill, and Russell.
