 One of the most complete anthologies came out in 1991 by David Rosenthal,  
titled The Nature of Mind. It surveys philosophy of mind from Descartes to  
computational perspectives, and costs around twenty bucks.
		For a Reader's Digest version of the same thing there is a  
small book by Paul Churchland called Matter and Consciousness, a standard  
introductory text to the traditional questions on mind.
