Abstract
Purpose: OF REVIEW: This review covers recent books and articles on the perennial problem of how mind and brain work together to produce psychiatric symptoms. RECENT
Findings: Discussed in this article are research on predictors of anxiety disorders, evidence relating to agency and sense of self-ownership, the extended mind hypothesis, and brain differences in genders of moral sensitivity. SUMMARY: Advances in brain sciences continue, but psychiatry would do well to work with philosophers in the field of philosophy of mind.
