Philosophical zombie
A philosophical zombie, or P-zombie, is a thought experiment in philosophy of mind: a being physically identical to a human yet lacking conscious experience entirely.
Philosophy of perception
The philosophy of perception is the branch of philosophy concerned with the nature of perceptual experience, and its central problem is reconciling obvious truths about experience with illusions and hallucinations.
Philosophy of physics
Philosophy of physics is the philosophical and conceptual study of major physical theories, including quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and space-time, gravity, and cosmology, with its central problem the quantum measurement problem.
Philosophy of science
Philosophy of science, also called theory of science, is the branch of philosophy concerned with how science works: what makes it science, how theories are tested, and what explanation is.
Philosophy of Science Association
The Philosophy of Science Association (PSA), founded in 1933, is an international organization promoting research in the philosophy of science and hosting the world's largest meeting of philosophers of science.
