Associate Professor of Philosophy and Cognitive Science Carolyn Jennings has recently published her latest book, "Attention and Mental Control", as part of the Cambridge Elements series on Philosophy of Mind. This work provides a scientifically-grounded account of the ability to control our minds, with focus on the relationship between mental control and attention, the phenomena of meditation and mind-wandering, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and emergence-based accounts of mental control.
