| Opplysninger | "Salience is both central to human life and relatively underexplored as a philosophical topic. Whether it bothers you that the picture on your wall isn't straight, whose advice you should take, or whether you notice the homeless person at your feet as you squeeze your way down the street: these are all a function of salience. Salience is clearly of significance for a broad range of philosophical sub-disciplines, but what precisely is it? This collection addresses this neglected question by considering the role of salience in a wide variety of areas: epistemology; philosophy of perception; philosophy of psychology; practical reason; feminist philosophy; and aesthetics. All 13 chapters have been specially commissioned for this volume, and are written by an international team of leading names in the field. Salience: A Philosophical Inquiry is essential reading for students and researchers in epistemology, philosophy of mind and psychology, ethics and metaphysics. It will also be of interest to those in related subjects such as politics, law and sociology"--
