Reviews

A book of great value to students of Aristotle's theory of perception-especially students who are also interested in contemporary work on perception. Philosophers of perception who do not have a strong antecedent interest in Aristotle will find material of value as well. * Gregory Salmieri, Journal of the History of Philosophy * ...thought-provoking as well as refreshing... * Katerina Ierodiakonou, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Online *
