Problems of Perception
Details
Most of what we know we know by perception: by seeing, hearing, touching, tasting and so on.
But do our senses present the world as it really is? There are many arguments that they don’t, and that what we actually perceive are internal mental images.
So what is the right account of perception? And can we explain it without sliding into scepticism?
Introduction to the topic will be by Elliot Buss.
