ABSTRACT
The previous chapters discuss phenomena neglected by the most well-developed contemporary theories of mindreading. In this chapter, I evaluate existing theories of mindreading in light of these phenomena. Although the main theories – hybrid versions of Theory Theory and Simulation Theory – are good insofar as they go, I argue that we need a theory of mindreading that encompasses the broader set of phenomena I canvass in earlier chapters. I argue that Model Theory has the potential to be the kind of comprehensive, unifying theory of mindreading that we need.
