However, the philosophical history of the senses remains a relatively neglected subject. Moving beyond the current philosophical canon, this outstanding collection offers a wide-ranging and diverse philosophical exploration of the senses, from the classical period to the present day. Written by a team of international contributors, it is divided into six parts: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerception from Non-Western Perspectives\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerception in the Ancient Period \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerception in the Medieval Latin\/Arabic Period\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerception in the Early Modern Period\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerception in the Post-Kantian Period\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerception in the Contemporary Period.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe volume challenges conventional philosophical study of perception by covering a wide range of significant, as well as hitherto overlooked, topics, such as perceptual judgment, temporal and motion illusions, mirror and picture perception, animal senses and cross-modal integration. By investigating the history of the senses in thinkers such as Plotinus, Auriol, Berkeley and Cavendish; and considering the history of the senses in diverse philosophical traditions, including Chinese, Indian, Byzantine, Greek and Latin it brings a fresh approach to studying the history of philosophy itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluding a thorough introduction as well as introductions to each section by the editors, \u003ci\u003eThe Senses and the History of Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e is essential reading for students and researchers in the history of philosophy, perception, philosophy of mind, philosophical psychology, aesthetics and eastern and non-western philosophy.
