Recently, however, this \u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e theory \u003cd\u003e\u003c\/d\u003e has come under challenge from the \u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e simulation alternative \u003cd\u003e\u003c\/d\u003e. This alternative view says that human bings are able to predict and explain each others' actions by using the resources of their own minds to simuate the psychological etiology of the actions of others. The thirteen essays in this volume present the foundations of theory of mind debate, and are accompanied by an extensive introduction.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cb\u003eMartin Davies\u003c\/b\u003e is Wilde Reader in Mnetal Philosophy in the University of Oxford and a Fellow of Corpus Christi College.
