  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.
