# The Contents of Experience Essays on Perception **Opening (not a real abstract):** The nature of perception has long been a central question in philosophy. It is of central importance not just for the philosophy of mind, but also for epistemology, metaphysics, aesthetics and the philosophy of science. This volume represents the best of the latest research on perception, with contributions from some of the leading philosophers in the area, including Christopher Peacocke, Brian O'Shaughnessy and Michael Tye. As well as discussing traditional problems, the essays also approach the topic in the light of recent research on mental content and representation. The volume represents a major statement on one of the most debated areas of philosophy. **Authors:** [[Tim Crane 1992]]
