I did not know who Thomas Nagel is so I looked him up and read about his philosophy work.
I'm not deep into philosophy, but to me that backed up the argument of the grandparent: it would certainly make me depressed if this was regarded as very prominent progress in my science discipline. Maybe I missed it, but I did not read anything on the connection between his philosophical theories and reality, using experiments or neuro-scientific analysis as proof.
It seems neuroscience and evolutionary biology give much better insights what things like self-consciousness, morals, subjectivity, spirit really are, and not much has been added to philosophy since what philosophers like Daniel Dennet wrote 20 years ago.
