Review

The book is scholarly, insightful, and contributes to the lively current discussion about the nature of consciousness.
—CHOICE

This book outlines a bold approach for reconciling phenomenological experience with current theories of cognitive psychology. Consciousness is treated as a useful, indeed critical component of cognition, rather than (as is typical) a pernicious thorn in the side of basic science which can be neither explained nor entirely dismissed. This integration of consciousness is accomplished through an ingenious melding of standard cognitive models with Gibson's theory of perception and philosophical analyses of intentionality. The result impressively illuminates how we might proceed to incorporate subjective perspective into scientifically grounded theories of mind.

Carlson does a very good job of making the case for why it is important for cognitive psychology to consider consciousness, skill acquisition, and the ecological perspective. This is a special accomplishment when writing about consciousness, a topic on which the writing is so often tangled and impenetrable; here, by contrast, the writing is both lucid and pithy. Although readers may not agree with everything the author has to say, they will certainly be better off for having read it.
