Phenomenology of Perception
Brill (Verlag)
978-90-04-30935-7 (ISBN)
Phenomenology of Perception: Theories and Experimental Evidence reconstructs and reviews the phenomenological research of the Brentano School, Edgar Rubin, David Katz, Albert Michotte and Gestalt psychology. Phenomenology is commonly considered a philosophy of subjective experience, but this book presents it instead as a set of commitments for philosophy and science to discover the immanent grammar underlying the objective meaning of perception. Pioneering experimental results on the qualitative and quantitative structures of the perceptual world are collected to show that, contrary to the received assumption, phenomenology can be embedded in standard science. This book will therefore be of interest not only to phenomenologists but also to anyone concerned with epistemological and empirical issues in contemporary psychology and the cognitive sciences.
Carmelo Calì, Ph.D. (2002), University of Palermo, is Assistant Professor at that university. He has published papers and chapters on the theory of perception and its implications for the psychology of arts, the cognitive sciences, and the social robotics.
