Eliminating eliminative materialism

Stephen Boulter

pp. 137-156

In the last three chapters I have attempted to address specific challenges to specific common sense beliefs. I have sought to defuse the arguments supporting the view that it is irrational to believe the conclusions of well-constructed inductive arguments, that the world does not exist independently of our representations of it, and that truth is epistemically constrained. Now it is time to broach a challenge of an entirely different order.
