A good primer on the mind-body problem

Last year I posted a list of all of the philosophy of mind books in my library. (Since then, I’ve added half a dozen more.) If you’re curious about what is probably one of the most controversial areas in contemporary philosophy, check out Alex Byrne’s survey piece entitled What Mind-Body Problem? in the latest Boston Review. (Alex is at MIT, where I’ve been attending some of the Friday philosophy seminars.)
