Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An argument that there are perceptual mechanisms that retrieve information in cognitively and conceptually unmediated ways and that this sheds light on various philosophical issues. In Cognition and Perception, Athanassios Raftopoulos discusses the cognitive penetrability of perception and claims that there is a part of visual processes (which he calls “perception”) that results in representational states with nonconceptual content; that is, a part that retrieves information from visual scenes in conceptually unmediated, “bottom-up,” theory-neutral ways. Raftopoulos applies this insight to problems in philosophy of science, philosophy of mind, and epistemology, and examines how we access the external world through our perception as well as what we can know of that world. To show that there is a theory-neutral part of existence, Raftopoulos turns to cognitive science and argues that there is substantial scientific evidence. He then claims that perception induces representational states with nonconceptual content and examines the nature of the nonconceptual content. The nonconceptual information retrieved, he argues, does not allow the identification or recognition of an object but only its individuation as a discrete persistent object with certain spatiotemporal properties and other features. Object individuation, however, suffices to determine the referents of perceptual demonstratives. Raftopoulos defends his account in the context of current discussions on the issue of the theory-ladenness of perception (namely the Fodor-Churchland debate), and then discusses the repercussions of his thesis for problems in the philosophy of science. Finally, Raftopoulos claims that there is a minimal form of realism that is defensible. This minimal realism holds that objects, their spatiotemporal properties, and such features as shape, orientation, and motion are real, mind-independent properties in the world.

Book excerpt: The best-selling book, The Adult Stroke Patient, Second Edition, has been completely revised and updated to become Vision, Perception, and Cognition: A Manual for the Evaluation and Treatment of the Neurologically Impaired Adult, Third Edition. The new edition of this extraordinary book is an indispensable reference for outlining the theoretical basis for visual, perceptual, and cognitive deficits, as well as specific procedures for the evaluation and treatment of these deficits. The book clearly explains each deficit and provides step-by-step testing techniques along with complete treatment guidelines. This invaluable book addresses both top down and bottom up approaches to evaluation and treatment. Vision, Perception, and Cognition is divided into categories for clarity, such as visual processing and discrimination skills, body scheme difficulties, executive functions and motor planning. The author has added additional theoretical information to back up evaluation and treatment decisions that are discussed. All the sections have been updated to represent the most current information available. This essential text now provides information for a more holistic approach as well as identifies subcomponent skills. Special Features Addresses both top down and bottom up approaches to evaluation and treatment. Divided into categories for clarity; body image and body scheme difficulties, spatial relations problems, aprozias, and agnosias.

Book excerpt: How do we see? This question has fascinated and perplexed philosophers and scientists for millennia. In visual perception, mind and world meet, when light reflected from objects enters the eyes and stimulates the nerves leading to activity in the brain near the back of the head. This neural activity yields conscious experiences of a world in three dimensions, clothed in colors, and immediately recognized as (say) ground, sky, grass, trees, and friends. The visual brain also produces nonconscious representations that interact with other brain systems for perception and cognition and that help to regulate our visually guided actions. But how does all of this really work? The answers concern the physiology, psychology, and philosophy of visual perception and cognition. Gary Hatfield's essays address fundamental questions concerning, in Part I, the psychological processes underlying spatial perception and perception of objects; in Part II, psychological theories and metaphysical controversies about color perception and qualia; and, in Part III, the history and philosophy of theories of vision, including methodological controversies surrounding introspection and involving the relations between psychology and the fields of neuroscience and cognitive science. An introductory chapter provides a unified overview; an extensive reference list rounds out the volume.
