Publisher's Synopsis
Mind and time are elusive. No grand theory has yet emerged that would have provided a fundamental solution to the many puzzles and perplexities associated with the two terms. There is even no consensus on the use of the concepts "mind" and "time." This situation is neither a semantic nor a theoretical disaster. Instead, it leads to the challenging interdisciplinary task of elaborating the connections between neuroscientific findings, psychometric approaches, and investigations in the disciplines of psychology, philosophy of science, epistemology, philosophy of language, and philosophy of mind. The contributions in this volume explore in an interdisciplinary division of labor the semantic, systematic, and empirical constellations of mind and time. They dispense with grand theory and limit themselves to tracing those contours of mind and time accessible with their respective methods from which, in the end, a larger picture can emerge.
