... be fully defined in functional terms. The argument does not suffice to establish the claimed results. In particular it does not show that such absent qualia cases are inconceivable. Tye’s argument relies on a principle P according to which the exchange of isomorphic states between functionally equivalent...

..., then exchanging the two families preserves psycho-functional duplication. (P), in my view, is an a priori truth. Some clarifi cations follow. First, it should be noted that the envisaged exchange is at the level of mental states. So, exchanging physical realizers of the mental states compris...

... in the service of “the capitalist (or whatever one chooses to call the master of labour)” (279), in the Comments he focuses more generically on labor for the sake of a familiar, self-interested kind of exchange—what he would later have called “commodity-producing labor.” 4 But it is clear that he also...

... adversarial exchange with few standards of rel- evance. The goal of each party here is to win the argument, to look good, or, even, to hurt and humiliate the other person. Eristic dialogues are of interest primarily because the other five types of dialogue often go wrong by degen- erating into eristic. Indeed...

... Habermas, John McDowell, Hilary Putnam, Bjørn Ramberg, and Michael Williams. Rorty himself has also written an essay, plus individual and fairly extensive replies to each of his critics. The exchanges are lively and sometimes intense, yet largely free from the sort of anxious moralizing that too...

... This is not to say that a change in the matter of a component of Carb entails a change in the matter of Carb: two of Carb’s atoms could exchange electrons without a difference in Carb’s matter. Presumably, however, if Carb’s atoms can survive exchanges of parts with one another, they can survive exchanges...

... is the grounding of perceptual (especially visual) beliefs. Indeed, it is largely because of this careful discussion of the jus- tification of introspective belief that the exchange is so rewarding. The book is divided into three parts: two main essays in which the authors develop their preferred positions...

... there are lots of articles that deal with various aspects of the exchanges. Perhaps it’s even more surprising because Ezio Vailati has shown how to manage a serious and ordered analysis of these exchanges. I suspect there are one or two historians of early modern philoso- phy (I plead guilty) who are wishing...

... of the commentators' dialectical exchanges with opponents, which often result in innovative solutions to objections and thought-provoking new readings of the arguments. The commentators have interesting disagreements among themselves about how to understand each argument's structure and how much each proves...

... the foundations of their discipline. The Leibniz/Newton controversy over the nature of physical space and the Einstein/Bohr exchanges over quantum theory provide paradigm examples of this phenom- enon. David Howie’s splendid recent book describes another philosophically laden dispute of this sort. Throughout...

... corre- spondence. So it’s surprising that until now there has been no full-scale study of these famous letters, though there are lots of articles that deal with various aspects of the exchanges. Perhaps it’s even more surprising because Ezio Vailati has shown how to manage a serious and ordered...

... to the review, he might have sensed a murkiness in the air. The exchange between Boolos and Dummett (reprinted from PAS SV 1993 and PAS 1994), which also concerns the contradiction, is instructive in many ways-not least in illustrating how two philosophers, severally en- gaging with a topic...

... will appreciate Putnam's exchange with Larry Hickman, whom he calls “the greatest living Dewey scholar” (788). Hickman details the “Deweyan deposit” in Putnam's thinking, and Putnam pushes back gently. Even more intriguing to me was Harvey Cormier's interpretation of Putnam as a Jamesian, and his diagnosis...

... but the most hard-line retraction intuitions in those cases. And now to the final particular worry we want to raise about the motivating data: denial (and acceptance) in discourse is pretty tricky business. The CIA theory gets its motivation from exchanges like (13) a. A: It might be that P...
