Michael Tye is a philosopher at the University of Texas at Austin who has made significant contributions to the philosophy of mind. He was educated at Oxford University in England, studying first physics and then physics and philosophy. Before moving to Texas, Tye taught at Haverford College in suburban Philadelphia and Temple University in Philadelphia proper. He was also a visiting professor at King's College, London for some ten consecutive years while at Temple and briefly took up a chair at the University of St. Andrews. Besides philosophy of mind, Tye has interests in cognitive science, metaphysics, and philosophical logic, especially problems relating to vagueness. Tye's third book, ''Ten Problems of Consciousness'' (1995), was an alternate selection of the Library of Science Book Club. Along with Fred Dretske, Tye defends the representationalist view of consciousness. == Works == * ''The Metaphysics of Mind'' (1989) * ''The Imagery Debate'' (1991) * ''Ten Problems of Consciousness'' (1995) * ''Consciousness, Color, and Content'' (2000) * ''Consciousness and Persons'' (2003) * ''Consciousness Revisited: Materialism without Phenomenal Concepts'' (2009) Tye is also the author of numerous articles, some of which can be found on his webpage http://www.michaeltye.us 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Michael Tye (philosopher)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
