Naive realist perspectives on seeing blurrily (2014)
Journal Article

Naive realists hold that experience is to be understood in terms
of an intimate perceptual relation between a subject and aspects
of the world, relative to a certain standpoint. Those aspects of
the world themselves shape the contours of conscious... Read More about Naive realist perspectives on seeing blurrily.
