Description
Inference and Consciousness by Timothy Chan and Anders Nes explores the relationship between two fundamental concepts in philosophy: inference and consciousness. Inference is a crucial means of extending our knowledge and testing our beliefs, while consciousness has been a central interest in philosophy of mind over recent decades. The authors bring together original essays from established scholars and emerging theorists to examine how current debates in epistemology, psychology, and philosophy of mind can benefit from reflections on the significance of consciousness for inference. This book sheds new light on how these concepts intersect and how they relate to each other. By examining the nature and role of inference, this book provides a unique perspective on the relationship between knowledge, perception, and mental capacities.
