Description: Galen Strawson reviews 'The Mysterious Flame: Conscious Minds in a Material World' by Colin McGinn.
A philosopher examines human consciousness and argues that the mind is too ill equipped to understand it. Conscious Minds in a Material World. here is no more interesting and inventive British philosopher writing today than Colin McGinn, who is currently teaching at Rutgers University. Recently he has begun to acquire a reputation for intellectual raffishness, and some philosophers, having learned a great deal from him on a very wide range of subjects for over 20 years, now like to put him down as too careless, too breezy, too coarse. But they keep up with his views, if they have any sense. He has a remarkable gift for developing new holds on old problems by shifting arguments and thought-experiments familiar in one area to another where nobody has thought of applying them.
