Description: David Kelley, former Vassar Professor of Philosophy/Cognitive Science, tackles both Kantian representationalism and Cartersian dualism in his book The Evidence of the Senses: A Realist Theory of Perception. This is an LSU 1988 copy of his treatise in Very Good condition, with minor shelf wear, otherwise with no folds, tears or underlining. Kelley tackles complex topics on perceptual theory from a realist perspective, arguing that perception is the discrimination of objects as entities, that our awareness of these entities is direct (NOT mediated or inferred in some way), and advances a key distinction between an object and its form. Kelley's book will make an excellent addition to any collection of 20th CE philosophy, epistemology and cognitive science.
