ABSTRACT
This chapter describes how grounding concepts may be used to formulate answers to the mind–body problem, surveying concerns about the appropriateness, adequacy, and indispensability of grounding concepts for addressing questions about the status of mind in a physical world. A central lesson will be that any adequate assessment of the usefulness of grounding frameworks for formulating views in the philosophy of mind must be sensitive to distinctions between the different grounding concepts that have been introduced.
