Concept Of Mind
by Ryle, Gilbert
The Concept of Mind (1949) is a book by the philosopher Gilbert Ryle. In it, he describes what he saw as a "fundamental mistake" made by Descartes' dualism, which underlies much of western philosophy. In the work, Ryle coined the phrase, "the dogma of the ghost in the machine," to refer to Descartes' model. The fundamental error, according to Ryle, is a category mistake made when philosophers talk about mind and matter as if they were, "... terms of the same logical type.
