Requests:  0 Summary:  "Kagan ponders a series of important nodes of debate while challenging us to examine what we know and why we know it. Most critically he presents an elegant argument for functions of mind that cannot be replaced with sentences about brains while acknowledging that mind emerges from brain activity. He relies on the evidence to argue that thoughts and emotions are distinct from their biological and genetic bases. In separate chapters he deals with the meaning of words, kinds of knowing, the powerful influence of social class, the functions of education, emotion, morality, and other issues. And without fail he sheds light on these ideas while remaining honest to their complexity." -- Publisher's description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hana P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 150.1 Kagan Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 150.1 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 150.1 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Nonfiction 150.1 Ka Checked In Add Copy to MyList
