Explaining Attitudes: A Practical Approach to the Mind - Cambridge Studies in Philosophy
Baker, Lynne Rudder (Distinguished Professor, University of Massachusetts, Amherst)
Explaining Attitudes develops an account of propositional attitudes - practical realism. Practical realism is an antidote to the now-dominant 'Standard View', according to which beliefs, if there are any, are identical to or are constituted by brain states. Practical realism takes beliefs to be states of whole persons, rather like states of health.
