A new breed of hyper-sceptics now challenges whether we even have the perceptual experience we think we have. According to these writers perceptual consciousness is a kind of false consciousness. This view grows out of the discovery of such phenomena as change blindness and inattentional blindness which show that we can all be quite blind to changes taking place before our very eyes. Such radical scepticism has acute and widespread implications for the study of perception and consciousness. The writings collected in this volume explore these implications. The contributors are scientists and philosophers at the forefront of this research and include well-known authors such as psychologists Susan Blackmore and Arien Mack and philosophers Andy Clark and Daniel Dennett. They have an gift for bringing these paradoxical issues to life and sharing their excitement with the non-specialist. -- REVIEWS: "This is a most impressive selection of essays on a central topic in cognitive science. Every essay has valuable points to make . . . This book is essential reading for any theorist interested in perception." -Paul Coates Human Nature Review -- "Many contributions to consciousness debates have been ill informed or over subjective. This volume does not suffer from these deficiencies. The common thread of change blindness ensures that all contributions are grounded in at least one empirically robust effect. The is no doubt that this grounding advances the quality of debate about the nature of visual experience." -- Richard Cooper THES "Noë's book is a well-balanced set of essays. There seems to be genuine controversy between the various contributors." Michael L. Anderson Metapsychology -- with a bonus offer--; 520-noeal; Noe Alva Ed.

1790ref. 56704Boston: I. Thomas and E.T. Andrews 1790. William Safire's Copy Noted grammarian and pundit William Safire's copy of the first collection of Noah Webster's writings demonstrating the broad reach of the pioneering lexicographer's genius. Webster's essays touch a variety of topics from the new constitution to the practical reasons why marriage between cousins is discouraged. Of particular note is the presence of many words that are spelled phonetically such as "Guvernment" "Skools" and "Karacter." This editorial decision was in keeping with Webster's growing desire to simplify language and qualify it in American as opposed to British ways by dispensing with unnecessary vowels and misleading consonant pairings such as "ch" for "k". The language experiments played out here demonstrate an important step in Webster's development as lexicographer which would culminate in the publication of Webster's famous dictionary nearly forty years later in 1828. A charming Webster item with a notable linguistics-related provenance having been owned by William Safire the preeminent popular language and grammar expert of the 20th century. Safire was an author journalist and speechwriter who wrote the long-running column "On Language" for the NEW YORK TIMES. An attractive copy by the foundational American language expert owned by the most notable public expert on language in 20th-century America. xvi414pp. Modern half calf and marbled boards with early calf corners laid down on the outer corners spine gilt leather label. Leather bookplate of William Safire on front pastedown with a handful of marginal pencil notations in the text likely in his hand. Mild offsetting on titlepage minor toning. Overall very good.

Covers rubbed with some loss of leather and staining to first volume; binding tight and firm. Very Good. Two royal octavo 7" x 10-1/2" volumes in contemporary calf leather with gilt-lettered black morocco spine labels marbled edges and endpapers. Illustrated with a frontispiece portrait. Webster's groundbreaking dictionary was originally published in New York in 1828 in a slightly larger format. Laid in is the Preface to the Revised Edition of 1847. PRINTING AND THE MIND OF MAN 291: "Webster was an ardent nationalist and he wanted to stress the political separation from Britain by the cultivation of a separate American language. Under the influence of his friend Benjamin Franklin he turned his attention to 'a reformed mode of spelling' and although he rejected the radical phonetic innovations proposed by Franklin he went far enough to give many printed American words a distinctive appearance."

1820ref. 55522New York: Printed by G.L. Birch & Co. 1820. Essays by Mordecai Noah An interesting work on saving and thrift by a consequential American diplomat.

Mordecai Noah 1785-1851 was U.S. Consul in Tunis during the Barbary Wars and as such was responsible for freeing American seamen. Noah was notable as one of the first Jewish Americans to hold an important diplomatic post and was ultimately removed from office for anti-Semitic reasons.

PRINTING AND THE MIND OF MAN 291: "Webster was an ardent nationalist and he wanted to stress the political separation from Britain by the cultivation of a separate American language. Under the influence of his friend Benjamin Franklin he turned his attention to 'a reformed mode of spelling' and although he rejected the radical phonetic innovations proposed by Franklin he went far enough to give many printed American words a distinctive appearance."

In 1843 he began to contribute to such newspapers as Le Charivari whose staff he eventually joined and remained for 30 years.
