Symposium: Consciousness and the Physical World

• Symposium Abstract: The past few years has seen a significant growth of interest within psychology in the nature and meaning of consciousness. Theories have multiplied, and the arguments continue to develop. In this symposium, one recent psychological approach to consciousness, that of Max Velmans, is attacked by two other psychologists (Wetherick, Rentoul). Velman replies with a spirited defense. Gillett—a philosopher—provides an overview and an interpretation of the psychologists' debate from the perspective of current philosophy, with Velmans offering a reply.
