Synopsis
This volume offers a philosophical account of 'cognitive feelings', such as feelings of knowing, certainty, reality, and familiarity. It argues that cognitive feelings and their affective phenomenology play a constitutive role in the geography and economy of the mind, at the interfaces between perception, belief, and action.
