Workshop overview

This small informal workshop on The Metaphysics of Mind will be held on Thursday December 11th in room 3.10 of the Dugald Stewart Building [NB. Note the room change]. Everyone is welcome (and there is no registration fee) but do send the organizer, Dr. Jesper Kallestrup (jesper.kallestrup@ed.ac.uk) an email if you want to come as the room is fairly small, and we may need to upgrade.

Lunch

13.30 - 15.00: Peter Fazekas (Edinburgh): 'Emergence and Non-Reductive Physicalism'
