About this book

The ways in which human action and rationality are guided by norms are well documented in philosophy and neighboring disciplines. But how do norms shape the way we experience the world perceptually? The present volume explores this question and investigates the specific normativity inherent to perception.

Reviews

“Normativity in Perception appears in Palgrave MacMillan’s ‘New Directions in Philosophy and Cognitive Science’ series, whose stated goal is to foster a ‘growing interest in rethinking traditional philosophical notions of cognition’ ... . Doyon and Breyer’s volume retains its particular place in the literature insofar as it is the only phenomenologically-oriented investigation which focuses solely on perceptual normativity.” (Zack Hugo, Husserl Studies, Vol. 35, 2019)
