Abstract
Chapter 1: Two Concepts of Mind. I distinguish the phenomenal and psychological concepts of mind. I argue that every mental state is a phenomenal state, a psychological state, or a hybrid of the two. I discuss the two mind-body problems corresponding to the two concepts of mind, and discuss the various senses of the term “consciousness”. Chapter 2: Supervenience and Explanation. I distinguish varieties of supervenience, especially logical and natural supervenience, where supervening properties covary with base properties across either logically possible or naturally possible worlds. Materialism is the thesis that all positive properties globally metaphysically supervene on microphysical properties. A property is reductively explainable in terms of physical properties if it globally logically supervenes on those properties.
