If we reason in a certain way about our experience, we are driven
to the conclusion that what is present to us - the object of our
experience - is something that exists only in so far as it is
present, hence that it is not part of the world. If, on the other
hand, we simply open up to our experience, all we find is the
world. This book sets out both to explain why we are entangled in
this puzzle and to consider ways of solving it. In examining the
puzzle, and possible solutions to the puzzle, Dr Valberg discusses
relevant views of Hume, Kant, Heidegger, Wittgenstein, and
Strawson, as well as ideas from the recent philosophy of
perception. Finally, he describes and analyses a manifestation of
the puzzle outside philosophy, in everyday life. Scholars and
students of philosophy will find much to challenge and stimulate
them in this original and clearly argued work.
