The 'Mental' and the 'Physical' - The Essay and the Postscript

Herbert Feigl's "The 'Mental' and the 'Physical'", originally published in *Minnesota Studies In The Philosophy Of Science*, was for many years considered a genre-defining work of analytic philosophy: that is to say, its attempt to bring the phenomenalist scruples of Feigl's early days up to materialist "spec" set the tone of discussions of the "mind-brain identity thesis" to an extent greater than attested to by the rate of adoption concerning Feigl's particulars. 

In this third, revised edition, Norris builds upon his 1991 afterword with an entirely new postscript, reflecting upon recent critical debate. The postscript includes an extensive list of recommended reading, complementing what was already one of the most useful bibliographies available.
