Dear all, I hope you have had a restful break! The philosophy of psychology reading group will continue this term on Thursdays at 11am.
The theme for this term is episodic memory, or 'mental time travel'. We'll kick off this Thursday 14th with Suddendorf & Corballis (2007) 'The evolution of foresight: What is mental time travel, and is it unique to humans?' Full details (and a full list of readings for the term) are below. This week, we'll be in the HPS board room - but for the rest of the term, we'll be in our usual room, HPS Seminar Room 1. I hope to see many of you there! Best, Ali Programme: 14th January: Thomas Suddendorf and Michael C.
