From the book reviews:“The volume consists of three sets of papers: one on ancient, one on medieval, and one on early modern philosophy. … this book is a valuable source for students and scholars interested in the history of philosophical psychology. Most of the papers are accessible to a broad audience. Many of the contributors interestingly qualify the idea that there is a clear-cut distinction to be made between passive and active accounts of perception.” (Han Thomas Adriaenssen, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, October, 2014)
