Abstract

According to Davidson there aren' t any psychophysical laws. That is, there aren't any laws that cornnect mental predicates with physical predicates; laws like "x believes that P if and only if x is in C", where C describes some physical condition of x. Or more generally x satisfies mental predicate M if and only if x satisties physical predicate P.
