Most research on perception has focused on the perceptual
experience of three-dimensional, solid, bounded, and coherent
material objects - items like tables and tomatoes. But as well as
having perceptual experience of such objects, we also experience
such aspects of the world as, for instance, rainbows and surfaces,
shadows and absences: things that are ephemeral by contrast with
material objects. This book presents fifteen new essays on the
perceptual experience of such ephemera. The editors' introduction
provides a detailed guide to the topic as a whole, setting out the
thematic background to this emerging area of research in
contemporary philosophy of perception. The volume winds a path
through the ephemeral, considering such topics as sounds, smells,
transparency, reflection, camouflage, solidity, and ambient vision.
A general aim of the volume is to make a case that the broad range
of ephemera it catalogues is far from marginal, or insubstantial
with respect to their philosophical interest and value.
Philosophical attention to perceptul ephemera may well suggest
novel routes to arriving at a more developed understanding of
perceptual experience at large and its characteristic features.
