Description
A Critical Introduction to the Epistemology of Perception by Ali Hasan offers a comprehensive and accessible examination of key debates in the contemporary epistemology of perception. Hasan delves into the foundational questions about how perception contributes to human knowledge, exploring whether and how perceptual experiences justify beliefs about the external world. The book begins by outlining the central issues in the epistemology of perception, including skepticism about the external world, the nature of perceptual justification, and the relationship between perception and knowledge. Hasan systematically introduces readers to influential theories such as foundationalism, coherentism, and reliabilism, explaining how they attempt to account for the epistemic role of perception. A significant focus is placed on the internalism versus externalism debate concerning justification, as well as discussions about the nature of perceptual experience—whether it is best understood in terms of sense-data, intentional content, or disjunctivism. Hasan also examines the problem of hallucination and illusion, addressing how such cases challenge the directness and reliability of perceptual knowledge. Throughout the book, Hasan critically engages with major philosophical figures and arguments, providing a balanced analysis that highlights the strengths and weaknesses of different positions. He encourages readers to think carefully about the conditions under which perceptual experiences can be sources of justification or knowledge and what this means for our broader understanding of epistemology. Clear and well-structured, A Critical Introduction to the Epistemology of Perception serves as both an introduction for those new to the topic and a valuable resource for more advanced readers. It offers insightful guidance for anyone interested in understanding how perception relates to belief, justification, and knowledge within contemporary philosophical debates.
