说明

这是2012年由Andy80o发布的一部课堂讲座，主题归在Consciousness & cognition。它讲的是philosophy of mind这一支里的具体问题，而不是把整个领域扫一遍。适合已经能看懂基本术语、想继续往下走的人。内容上可以概括成：Noam Chomsky's 2011 University of Oslo lecture on Newton's contributions to the study of mind. He argues Newton abandoned mechanical explanation and lowered the bar for scientific intelligibility, with consequences for the limits of human understanding. Q&A starts at 45:33.这些读者给出的理由，核心是：Recommended as a lucid, insightful lecture on the limits of human knowledge and the study of mind, one commenter calling it among the best lectures ever.讲法不绑某一条新闻，过几年仍然可以当材料看。从2013年到2022年，有2位不同的读者在2个不同月份把它推荐出来，其中明确叫别人去看的有1次。节奏接近上课，可以暂停做笔记。它假设你愿意跟着一条推导走完。如果已经会了基本定义，就把注意力放在它怎么把philosophy of mind变成能跟着复述的例子。
