About this ebook

With a focus on phenomenological methods, this new edition of Shaun Gallagher’s highly regarded textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to phenomenology considered as a philosophical and interdisciplinary practice. Phenomenology 2e encompasses both the classic 20th century explications of phenomenology as well as recent developments in the practical and scientific uses of phenomenology.

Key features:

  • Explores debates about naturalizing phenomenology and reviews recent extensions of phenomenological methodology.
  • Relates the phenomenological analysis of intentionality to discussions of enactive perception.
  • Includes a discussion of the phenomenology of performance and a new chapter on critical phenomenology.
  • Examines specialized topics in phenomenology, including Husserl’s concept of hyletic data, embodiment, time-consciousness, action, intersubjectivity and self-consciousness.
  • Each chapter concludes with suggestions for further reading.

This book is essential reading for all undergraduate and graduate philosophy students taking courses in phenomenology. It is also ideal for use on cognitive science modules that incorporate a phenomenological perspective.
