Popis: This chapter argues that a compelling case for the existence of a sense of mineness is yet to be made. It proposes that any such case must overcome four impediments. The first is epistemological and concerns how we could identify this putative feature of experience. The second concerns the representational content of such experiences. The third concerns the function that these experiences would perform; and the fourth concerns the possibility of malfunction. The chapter argues that although none of these impediments constitute a knock-down objection to the sense of mineness, they each present a serious challenge that advocates of the sense of mineness must address.
