Centered Mind

Discover the thought-provoking insights of Centered Mind by Peter Carruthers, published by Oxford University Press in 2017. This compelling paperback spans 304 pages and delves into the intricate relationship between reflective thinking and consciousness. Carruthers challenges the foundational assumptions held by many philosophers, drawing on his extensive knowledge of scientific literature related to working memory.

In this enlightening work, he presents a bold argument that non-sensory propositional attitudes—such as beliefs, goals, and decisions—are never conscious and are not under direct intentional control. Centered Mind is an essential read for anyone interested in critical thinking, consciousness, and the depths of human cognition. Join Carruthers on a journey that will reshape your understanding of the mind and its workings.
