Recenzje

'Sophie Archer assembles an impressive group of philosophers who show how the phenomenon of salience is philosophically salient. Of particular interest is the exploration of how salience connects to norms of attention in ethics and epistemology. These essays make a strong case for an important line of philosophical inquiry and will repay close reading by philosophers of mind, ethics, politics and epistemology.' - Wayne Wu, Carnegie Mellon University, USA
