This book investigates the complex, sometimes fraught relationship
between phenomenology and the natural sciences. The contributors
attempt to subvert and complicate the divide that has historically
tended to characterize the relationship between the two fields.
Phenomenology has traditionally been understood as methodologically
distinct from scientific practice, and thus removed from any claim
that philosophy is strictly continuous with science. There is some
substance to this thinking, which has dominated consideration of
the relationship between phenomenology and science throughout the
twentieth century. However, there are also emerging trends within
both phenomenology and empirical science that complicate this too
stark opposition, and call for more systematic consideration of the
inter-relation between the two fields. These essays explore such
issues, either by directly examining meta-philosophical and
methodological matters, or by looking at particular topics that
seem to require the resources of each, including imagination,
cognition, temporality, affect, imagery, language, and perception.
