A Coincidence

I recently published three articles that may be of interest to some readers:

“The Cognitive Neuroscience Revolution,” (with Worth “Trey” Boone), Synthese.

Articulates how cognitive neuroscience explains cognition in terms of representational, computational, multi-level mechanisms.

“Access Denied to Zombies,” Topoi.

Argues that in doing metaphysics we should pay closer attention to the relation of accessibility between possible worlds, or else we risk committing fallacies.

“Is Consciousness a Spandrel?” (with Zack Robinson and Corey Maley), Journal of the APA.

Articulates the possibility that phenomenal consciousness has no biological function because it’s either a byproduct of other traits or a (functionless) evolutionary accident, and examines which metaphysical positions entail this view.

Also, my book Physical Computation: A Mechanistic Account, OUP, is coming out on July 2 in the UK, and in a few weeks in the US.
