Too often today it seems we find ourselves communicating from
radically different perspectives on the world and we often despair
of communication even being possible. Peter Ludlow argues that
perspectival content, or what some call indexical content, is
ineliminable and ubiquitous, running through our accounts of human
action and emotions, perception, normative behaviour, and even our
theories of computation and information. While such content may be
ineliminable, it also gives rise to philosophical puzzles -
particularly those involving reporting these contents from
different perspectival positions. Such puzzles have led some to try
and abandon perspectival content, and others to despair of
communication across diverse perspectival positions. Ludlow argues
that communication across diverse perspectival positions is not
only possible, but routine, and develops a theory of
interperspectival content and cognitive dynamics to explain how it
is accomplished.
