Readings - Seminar 5 on Tuesday 21 Aug

In Seminar 5, we begin our second main section of the course, on the Embodied Mind. We will spend Seminars 5 and 6 focussing on the work of Antonio Damasio, in his 1994 book Descartes' Error (see previous posts on prescribed texts).

The prescribed reading for Seminar 5 is Damasio (1994) Chapters 3, 5, 6 and 7.

Recommended reading would be to read all of Part I of the book (Chapters 1-4), as well as the chapter on emotions and feelings from Damasio (1999) The Feeling of What Happens (copies available in the Main Office from lunchtime on Wednesday 8 August).
