Focusing on the functions and capacities of perceptual states, Burge accounts for their representational content and structure, and develops a formal semantics for them. The discussion explains the role of iconic format in the structure. It also situates the accounts of content, structure, and semantics within scientific explanations of perceptual-state formation, emphasizing formation of perceptual categorization. In the book's second half, Burge discusses what a perceptual system is. Exploration of relations between perception and other primitive capacities-conation, attention, memory, anticipation, affect, learning, and imagining-helps distinguish perceiving, with its associated capacities, from thinking, with its associated capacities. Drawing mainly on vision science, not introspection, Perception: First Form of Mind is a rigorous, agenda-setting work in philosophy of perception and philosophy of science.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51667301237024,"sku":"NEW0198871015","price":53.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61Q4jpgwhaL.jpg?v=1778964464","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/perception-first-form-of-mind-0198871015","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
