Re:The Best Books on the Philosophy of Mind by mr_toad on Sunday March 18, 2018 @10:34PM (#16615849)
The concept of a mind is not the same as an instance of a particular mind, any more than a algorithm is the same as a running process, or the idea of 3 is the same as a set of logic gates designed to represent a 3 in binary.

Mistaking our own internal representation of our own mind (our consciousness) for our actual mind is what Dennit is arguing against.
