Philosophers of science work not only with the methods of the sciences but with their contents as well Substantive issues concerning the relation between mind and matter between the material basis and the functions of cognition have been central within the entire history of philosophy We recall such philosophers as Aristotle Descartes the early Kant Ernst Mach and the early William James as directly inquiring of the organs and structures of thinking Science and its philosophical selfcriticism are especially and deeply united in the effort to understand the biological brain and human behavior and so it requires no apology to include this collection of clinical studies among Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science The work of Dr Norman Geschwind well represented in this selection explores the relation between structure and function between the anatomy of the brain and the higher behavior of men and women As a clinical neurologist Geschwind was led to these studies particularly by his in terest in those pathologies which have to do with human perception and language His research into the anatomical substrates of specific dis ordersand strikingly the aphasias present a fascinating and provocative examination of fundamental questions which will concern not neurologists alone but also psychologists physicians linguists speech pathologists educators anthropologists historians of medicine and philosophers among others namely all those interested in the characteristic modes of human activity in speech in perception and in the learning process generally

The philosophy of perception is a microcosm of the metaphysics of mind Its central problemsWhat is perception What is the nature of perceptual consciousness How can one fit an account of perceptual experience into a broader account of the nature of the mind and the worldare at the heart of metaphysics Rather than try to cover all of the many strands in the philosophy of perception this book focuses on a particular orthodoxy about the nature of visual perceptionThe central problem for visual science has been to explain how the brain bridges the gap between what is given to the visual system and what is actually experienced by the perceiver The orthodox view of perception is that it is a process whereby the brain or a dedicated subsystem of the brain builds up representations of relevant figures of the environment on the basis of information encoded by the sensory receptors Most adherents of the orthodox view also believe that for every conscious perceptual state of the subject there is a particular set of neurons whose activities are sufficient for the occurrence of that state Some of the essays in this book defend the orthodoxy most criticize it and some propose alternatives to it Many of the essays are classics ContributorsGEM Anscombe Dana Ballard Daniel Dennett Fred Dretske Jerry Fodor HP Grice David Marr Maurice MerleauPonty Zenon Pylyshyn Paul Snowdon and PF Strawson
