Books by Austen (Professor of Philosophy Clark

Drawing on the findings of neuroscience, this text proposes and defends the hypothesis that the various modalities of sensation share a generic form that the author, Austen Clark, calls "feature-placing".

Many philosophers doubt that one can provide any successful explanation of the sensory qualities - of how things look, feel, or seem to a perceiving subject. Clark addresses this apparently intractable problem and suggests that a solution is in fact possible.
