Pat is one of the founders of neurophilosophy, which examines the relationship between neuroscience and philosophy. According to her, "to understand the mind, we must understand the brain," and she applies findings from neuroscience to common philosophical questions about knowledge, free will, consciousness, and ethics. This video discusses the origins of our moral intuition and how the moral teachings of evolution can be justified. We also discuss implications for wider topics including free will. It is an intriguing and entertaining that raises questions as it answers others. Take part in the comments section by telling us what you think.
Pat's website, possibly the best of any professional philosopher, contains all her articles and books. Have a look if you are interested in reading more: https://patriciachurchland.com/publications.
