Examine the arguments
for the claim that the concept of perception is a causal concept. Is there any
alternative to such a view?
Is perceiving just
belief acquisition?
Do perceptual
experiences have �sensational� properties?
Philosophy of perception straddles epistemology and philosophy of mind in its struggle to understand how we come to perceive the world around us.
Doesn�t knowing the physiological mechanics of our perceptual processes answer these questions.
