Description

The Metaphysics of Perception is a significant philosophical work published by Routledge that examines perception through the lens of critical realism and Wilfrid Sellars' influential theories. This book presents a sophisticated defence of the causal theory of perception whilst addressing long-standing tensions in philosophy of mind. Author Paul Coates provides detailed responses to contemporary Realist arguments, offering a novel framework for understanding how perception connects to metaphysics and our place in the world. Essential reading for students and scholars of epistemology, philosophy of mind, and metaphysics who seek to understand the relationship between sensory experience and reality.

Key Features

The Metaphysics of Perception develops a novel argument grounded in Wilfrid Sellars' philosophical work and critical realism theory.

Paul Coates defends a sophisticated form of the causal theory of perception with detailed responses to recent Realist positions.

This Routledge philosophy book examines fundamental questions about perception, knowledge, and humanity's place within the world.

The work addresses systematic tensions that have confused philosophers of perception throughout the history of epistemology.
