The concept of mental representation plays a central role in theories about mental phenomena and mechanisms of information processing. Philosophers, psychologists, and neuroscientists engage in lively discussions about how we, or our brains, manage to represent the world, and what exactly mental representations are. This volume brings together the key texts of the debate—from Ned Block and Fred Dretske to Jerry Fodor and Ruth Millikan—now available for the first time in German translation. A foundational work on the philosophy of mind and cognitive science.
