Georges Rey is a professor of philosophy at the University of Maryland.

His book Contemporary Philosophy of Mind discusses the topic of philosophy of mind. One major focus of Rey's exposition relates to eliminativism and instrumentalism, particularly with respect to the mental states that we are subjectively aware of by way of introspection. Rey is also the author of the current article on philosophy of mind at Encyclopædia Britannica.
