This book explores the important yet neglected relationship between
the philosophy of time and the temporal structure of perceptual
experience. It examines how time structures perceptual experience
and, through that structuring, the ways in which time makes
perceptual experience trustworthy or erroneous. Sean Power argues
that our understanding of time can determine our understanding of
perceptual experience in relation to perceptual structure and
perceptual error. He examines the general conditions under which an
experience may be sorted into different kinds of error such as
illusions, hallucinations, and anosognosia. Power also argues that
some theories of time are better than others at giving an account
of the structure and errors of perceptual experience. He makes the
case that tenseless theory and eternalism more closely correspond
to experience than tense theory and presentism. Finally, the book
includes a discussion of the perceptual experience of space and how
tenseless theory and eternalism can better support the problematic
theory of naive realism. Philosophy of Time and Perceptual
Experience originally illustrates how the metaphysics of time can
be usefully applied to thinking about experience in general. It
will appeal to those interested in the philosophy of time and
debates about the trustworthiness of experience.
