by StephenP.Stich (Author)
In this book, Stich unravels - or deconstructs - the doctrine called "eliminativism". Eliminativism claims that beliefs, desires, and many other mental states we use to describe the mind do not exist, but are fictional posits of a badly mistaken theory of "folk psychology". Stich makes a U-turn in his book, opening up new and controversial positions.
