Summary, etc. The maIn aIm of this monograph is to highlight some of the recent debates centering round the Externalist versus Internalist controversies in the philosophy of mind as we come across in analytic philosophy. In this domain, there has been a gradual shift from questions of language to questions of mind. Thus, it is often claimed that a mentalistic turn has emanated from what has been called 'the linguistic turn'. Taking clue from the wri tings of some of the philosophers who will figure prominently in the main body of the text, we trace this shift in this introduction.<br/>This will hopefully help us in understanding the way questions concerning mental states are intrinsically related to questions of language, and therefore, the way in which transition from one tothe other is made in the discussion which is to follow.<br/>Michael Dummett, in his book Origins of Analytical Philosophy (1994, Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Mass) remarks<br/>'analytical philosophy was born when the "linguistic turn" wastaken' (p. 5). The aim of this school of philosophy, which was<br/>initia ted in the late 19th century by philosophers like Frege, Russell, Moore and Wittgenstein, and which domina ted<br/>philosophical enterprise in the Anglo-American world almost the whole of the 20th century, may be characterized in the<br/>following two ways: (1) a thorough account of philosophical problems can be attained through an analysis of language, and<br/>(2) this is the only comprehensive way that it can be attained. These two statements constitute the crux of the 'lingltistic turn' in philosophy.
