The Phenomenological Mind is the first book to properly introduce fundamental questions about the mind from the perspective of phenomenology. Key questions and topics covered include:

What is phenomenology?
naturalizing phenomenology and the empirical cognitive sciences
phenomenology and consciousness
consciousness and self-consciousness, including perception and action
time and consciousness, including William James
intentionality
the embodied mind
action
knowledge of other minds
situated and extended minds
phenomenology and personal identity
Interesting and important examples are used throughout, including phantom limb syndrome, blindsight and self-disorders in schizophrenia, making The Phenomenological Mind an ideal introduction to key concepts in phenomenology, cognitive science and philosophy of mind.
