Summary:Providing an overall theory of perception and an account of knowledge and justification concerning the physical, the abstract, and the normative, this text has the rigor appropriate for professionals but explains its main points using concrete examples. It accounts for two important aspects of perception on which philosophers have said too little: its relevance to a priori knowledge-traditionally conceived as independent of perception-and its role in human action. Overall, the book provides a full-scale account of perception, presents a theory of the a priori, and explains how perception guides action.
Target Audience:Specialized.
