Yesterday, we held an informal organising meeting for our Reading Group due to be established in Semester Two.

Great to see that we're all super excited. It was a wonderful high note to end Semester One on. Now... onwards to sleep, rest and recuperation...

In Semester Two, I am pulling together a Philosophy of Psychiatry, Psychology and Mental Health Reading Group. We will be covering the topics broadly and will include Philosophy of Mind & Cognition.

Does anyone have any recommendations for suggested readings?

Where would you start?

Everyday Philosophy: When should you try to change your friend's beliefs? How is believing in the Loch Ness monster different to anti-vax? And what should you do if your friend believes either (or both)?

My slightly confused thoughts about vaccine hesitancy and (dis)trust in science are discussed in this article in the Big Think.

Philosophers with direct lived experience of mental illness, madness, neurodiversity, etc.

Still plenty of time to submit your abstracts for this conference (until 24 December).
