Starting with the list
of David Chalmers, we have the following articles and references online. I have
divided them into approximate motivational categories. This is now what Chalmers et al have done on the
philpapers.org website.
He now has categories for
dualism, interactionism,
and other topics in the Metaphysics
of Mind. Interesting new papers from there will also be listed
here. See also Dualism at
LastSeminary.com
If you have your own papers to list, please email
