Arguing for the compatibility of phenomenology and naturalism, this
book also refashions each. The opening chapters begin with a
methodological focus, which seeks to curb the "over-bidding"
characteristic of both traditional transcendental phenomenology and
scientific naturalism. Having thus opened up the possibility that
the twain might meet, it is in the detailed chapters on matters
where scientific and phenomenological work overlap and sometimes
conflict - on time, body, and others - that the book contests some
of the standard ways of understanding the relationship between
phenomenological philosophy and empirical science, and between
phenomenology and naturalism. Without invoking a methodological
move of quarantine, in which each is allocated to their proper and
separate domains, the book outlines the significance of the
first-person perspective characteristic of phenomenology - both
epistemically and ontologically - while according due respect to
the relevant empirical sciences. The book thus renews phenomenology
and argues for its ongoing relevance and importance for the future
of philosophy.
