Philosophy
If you want a good head of hair, it is necessary to exist. However, cognitive philosophy also boasts an entire bestiary of creatures who are universally agreed not to exist but who are nonetheless employed as thought experiments to draw out the implications of different philosophical positions. The Martian lacks humanity, but has consciousness and observable behaviour; the Zombie has humanity and behaviour, but lacks consciousness (Midgely, 2004); the Robot has neither humanity nor consciousness, but has behaviour (Kirk, 1986). If we make these up into a table (Table 1), we find that there are vacant spaces for people who have humanity but neither consciousness nor behaviour, and people who have humanity and consciousness but no behav¬iour; and these gaps have been filled by recruiting people in PVS and locked-in syndrome (LIS).如果你想要有一头好头发,那么头发必须存在。然而,认知哲学也鼓吹一整套的动物寓言集, 一致认为它们是不存在的,但不管怎样都被用来做思想实验,从而得出不同的哲学立场的寓义。 火星人没有人性,但是具备意识和可见的行为;蛇神具备人性和行为能力,但是缺少意识(米格利 2004);机器人既没有人性也没有意识,但是具备行为能力(Kirk,1986)。如果我们把这些填到表格(表1)中,就会发现有些空格:即有的人有人性却既没有意识也没有行为能力,有的人有人性和意识却没有行为能力;而这些空格则刚好能被PVS患者和闭锁综合症患者(LIS)填充。

还魂尸
放在句子里:“还魂尸有人性和行为能力,但没有意识。”
此外,“动物寓言集”的译法值得商榷。

: 台灣有人稱之為「活死人」,「還魂屍」倒是個不錯的稱法。
