This designation, \u003ci\u003ehuman\u003c\/i\u003e, can be used beyond the mere identification of a species to underwrite exclusion, denigration, dehumanization and demonization, and to set up a pervasive opposition in \u003ci\u003eOthering\u003c\/i\u003e all deemed inhuman, nonhuman, or posthuman. As alerted to by Merleau-Ponty, one crucial key for a deeper understanding of these issues is consideration of the nature and scope of perception. Perception defines the world of the perceiver, and perceptual capacities are constituted in engagement with the world - there is co-determination. Moreover, the distinct phenomenology of perception in the spectatorial mode in contrast to the reciprocal mode, deepens the intersubjective and ethical dimensions of such investigations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eQuestions motivating the essays include: Can objectification and an \u003ci\u003einhuman gaze\u003c\/i\u003e serve positive ends? If so, under what constraints and conditions? How is an \u003cem\u003einhuman gaze\u003c\/em\u003e achieved and at what cost? How might the emerging insights of the role of perception into our interdependencies and essential sociality from various domains challenge not only theoretical frameworks, but also the practices and institutions of science, medicine, psychiatry and justice? What can we learn from atypical social cognition, psychopathology and animal cognition? Could distortions within the gazer's emotional responsiveness and habituated aspects of social interaction play a role in the emergence of an \u003ci\u003einhuman gaze\u003c\/i\u003e? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerception and the Inhuman Gaze will interest scholars and advanced students working in phenomenology, philosophy of mind, psychology, psychiatry, sociology and social cognition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnya Daly\u003c\/strong\u003e is Honorary Fellow at the University of Melbourne, Australia and a former IRC Fellow at University College Dublin, Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFred Cummins\u003c\/strong\u003e is Associate Professor of Cognitive Science in the School of Computer Science at University College Dublin, Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJames Jardine\u003c\/strong\u003e is Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland and a former IRC Fellow at University College Dublin, Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDermot Moran\u003c\/strong\u003e is the inaugural holder of the Joseph Chair in Catholic Philosophy at Boston College, USA and Full Professor of Philosophy at University College Dublin, Ireland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 348\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.75 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 01, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42170172899463,"sku":"9780367503079","price":100.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/c42e24d86a977f6e19963cbd986d9df4.webp?v=1733346512","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/perception-and-the-inhuman-gaze-perspectives-from-philosophy-phenomenology-and-the-sciences-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
