This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The philosophy of perception investigates the nature of our sensory experiences and their relation to reality. In the second edition of this popular book, William Fish introduces the subject thematically, setting out the major theories of perception together with their motivations and attendant problems. While providing historical background to debates in the field, this comprehensive overview focuses on recent presentations and defenses of the different theories, and looks beyond visual perception to take into account the role of other senses.The second edition organizes the contents into two main parts: the first deals with philosophical theories of perception, and the second covers key topics and issues in perception as they are discussed in philosophy, cognitive science, and psychology. Two completely new chapters have been added - one on color and color vision; and a second on the interaction between sense modalities - and other chapters have been significantly updated to include discussion of topics such as pre-twentieth-century philosophy of perception, phenomenal intentionality, color adverbialism, predictive processing approaches to perception, ecological approaches to perception, and in-depth discussions of the non-visual senses. Additional updates include fuller and easier-to-understand explanations of some important views that were glossed over in the first edition and greater coverage of research from the last 25 years. All chapter summaries, references, and Suggested Reading lists at the end of each chapter have been brought up to date and the volume now includes a more extensive index at the back of the book.Key Features and Benefits:The only single-authored textbook on philosophy of perception currently availableDevoted to contemporary theories and topics, but with appropriate historical coverage for fuller understanding of contemporary workEach chapter includes a chapter overview, questions for further consideration, and an annotated list of Suggested ReadingIncludes coverage of topics like:the phenomenal principleperception and hallucinationperception and contentnaïve realism and disjunctivismintentionalism and representationalismthe nature of contentqualia theories and phenomenal intentionalityperception and empirical sciencecolor and color sciencetheories of non-visual perceptionMolyneux's problemcross-modal illusionsmultimodalityKey Changes to the Second EditionThe division of the book into two major parts: Part I on philosophical theories of perception, Part II on key interdisciplinary topics in perceptionThe addition of two new chapters on color and color vision, and interaction between different sense modalitiesMore topics from the last 25 years of philosophy of perceptionCombined chapters on belief acquisition theories and intentional theories into one larger chapterMore material on the growing intersection of the philosophy and psychology of perceptionIncludes coverage of Molyneux's problem and of cross-modal illusionsUpdated chapter summaries, references, and Suggested Reading lists at the end of each chapterA summary tableand a more extensive index 292 pp. Englisch.…

The philosophy of perception investigates the nature of our sensory experiences and their relation to reality. In the second edition of this popular book, William Fish introduces the subject thematically, setting out the major theories of perception together with their motivations and attendant problems. While providing historical background to debates in the field, this comprehensive overview focuses on recent presentations and defenses of the different theories, and looks beyond visual perception to take into account the role of other senses.
The second edition organizes the contents into two main parts: the first deals with philosophical theories of perception, and the second covers key topics and issues in perception as they are discussed in philosophy, cognitive science, and psychology. Two completely new chapters have been added - one on color and color vision; and a second on the interaction between sense modalities - and other chapters have been significantly updated to include discussion of topics such as pre-twentieth-century philosophy of perception, phenomenal intentionality, color adverbialism, predictive processing approaches to perception, ecological approaches to perception, and in-depth discussions of the non-visual senses.

All chapter summaries, references, and Suggested Reading lists at the end of each chapter have been brought up to date and the volume now includes a more extensive index at the back of the book.
