The Rationality of Perception

ISBN: 9780198797081 出版年：2017 页码：248 Siegel, Susanna Oxford University Press

There is an important division in the human mind between perception and reasoning. We reason from information that we have already, but perception is a means of taking in new information. Susanna Siegel argues that these two aspects of the mind become deeply intertwined when beliefs, fears, desires, or prejudice influence what we perceive.
