****************************************

The philosophy of perception has experienced a resurgence of interest in recent years, due in part to an increased appreciation of the distinctive features of perceptual modalities other than vision, as well as an increased appreciation of the intimate connections between perception and action. This one-day workshop is intended to explore these new frontiers by bringing together four leading
philosophers of perception. All are welcome to attend!
