Brad asked:

Gilbert Ryle argues against the Cartesian account of mind and body. What is his challenge, what sort
of mistake does he think the Cartesian is making, and what information is the Cartesian unable to
explain? What is Ryle's own idea of the mind, and of mental states?

============

You might welcome the information that all the answers you are seeking can be found in the book
Gilbert Ryle has written on the subject. Its called The Concept of Mind. Happy reading!
