Bøker av Ryan Hickerson

In Feelings of Believing, Ryan Hickerson interprets the doxastic theories of Hume, Descartes, Husserl, and James in light of empirical work on attention and overconfidence. It brings together the history of philosophy, phenomenology, and psychology.

Franz Brentano (1838-1917) is almost unique as a forefather of both Analytic and Continental philosophy. His claim to fame is the reintroduction of intentionality (the 'aboutness' of consciousness) to the modern philosophy of mind. This book offers interpretations of a central philosophical concept employed in the Brentano School.
