roba's review
I should stop reading academic books. I don't really have the concentration span or indeed the intellect to follow very technical stuff. But Galen Strawson has written his target paper here in quite a straightforward and conversational style, which meant I was quite proud to (I think) understand his argument.
Which seemed fairly convincing, but then I was convinced by most of the counter-argument essays as I was reading them. Gahh. I should probably accept that no one is going to solve the hard question (consciousness - WTF???!??).
Not giving any stars because I skimmed the counter-arguments, so it wouldn't be fair, and I know how important GoodReads reviews are to philosophy professors choosing their reading lists.
