This book is the first monograph fully devoted to analyzing the
philosophical aspects of affordances. The concept of affordance,
coined and developed in the field of ecological psychology,
describes the possibilities for action available in the
environment. This work offers a systematic approach to the key
philosophical features of affordances, such as their ontological
characterization, their relation to normative practices, and the
idea of agency that follows from viewing affordances as key objects
of perception, while also proposing an innovative philosophical
characterization of affordances as dispositional properties. The
Philosophy of Affordances analyzes the implications that a proper
understanding of affordances has for the philosophy of mind and the
cognitive sciences, and aims to intensify the dialogue between
philosophy and ecological psychology in which each discipline
benefits from the tools and insights of the other.
