Features: Mind philosophy is the "philosophy" in Western philosophy, especially in Anglo-American philosophy. Its main purpose is to deconstruct the mind and remove the mystical aura that covers it. This book is a discussion of this philosophical trend. The first part traces the origins of the ontological revolution in Western mind philosophy, reveals its spiritual essence, and predicts its future direction. The second part examines the linguistic genealogy of the concept of the mind, pointing out that psychological language derives from physical language through analogy and metaphor. Common-sense psychological concepts are essentially dualistic. This book belongs to an advanced discipline, with novel ideas and pioneering significance.
