Abstract
there are other people, is that one is ignorant about whether there are other people of the sort that are conscious. We never put it that way, of course, because it never occurs to us to think that a non-conscious thing could be a person, as Chalmers is suggesting.

期刊介绍:
Philosophy is the journal of the Royal Institute of Philosophy, which was founded in 1925 to build bridges between specialist philosophers and a wider educated public. The journal continues to fulfil a dual role: it is one of the leading academic journals of philosophy, but it also serves the philosophical interests of specialists in other fields (law, language, literature and the arts, medicine, politics, religion, science, education, psychology, history) and those of the informed general reader. Contributors are required to avoid needless technicality of language and presentation. The institutional subscription includes two supplements.
