This book is about the interweaving between cognitive penetrability
and the epistemic role of the two stages of perception, namely
early and late vision, in justifying perceptual beliefs. It
examines the impact of the epistemic role of perception in defining
cognitive penetrability and the relation between the epistemic role
of perceptual stages and the kinds (direct or indirect) of
cognitive effects on perceptual processing. The book presents the
argument that early vision is cognitively impenetrable because
neither is it affected directly by cognition, nor does cognition
affect its epistemic role. It also argues that late vision, even
though it is cognitively penetrated and, thus, affected by
concepts, is still a perceptual state that does not involve any
discursive inferences and does not belong to the space of reasons.
Finally, an account is given as to how cognitive states with
symbolic content could affect perceptual states with iconic, analog
content, during late vision.
