dc.description.abstract	The paper is a review of Colin McGinn’s Mindfucking: a critique of mental manipulation. After a short introduction to McGinn’s work, the first part of the paper offers a thorough chapter-by-chapter analysis of the book. The second part follows other commentators in pointing out that several arguments in the book are not bullet-proof, and eventually suggests that the book is better appreciated as a mere philosophical divertissement. An appendix reports about recent events that led McGinn to resign his position at the University of Miami.	en
