Web Resources
The WWW (World Wide Web) offers an astonishing array of resources and
information
concerning philosophy, cognitive science, and the relationship between
two. For example, most of the great works of philosophy are available
to
be downloaded and most of the leading figures currently working include
some of their recent papers on their web page for downloading. All this
is free. In order to introduce you to these Web resources, I have put
together
a sample of some of the most interesting sites.
As the Table of Contents indicates, there are generel reference
sites,
sites on a few individual topics of particular interest, Departmental
home
pages, sites evaluating graduate programmes, some individual
philosophers'
sites of special interest, and a few humorous sites (check out
Philosophical
Comics!!).
Often these sites will lead you on to
other
sites -- which will lead you on the still other sites -- and so on.
There
are so many interesting sites that the only limitation is your own
interest
-- and time: surfing the Web gobbles up time! Here we go!
