Produktbeschreibung
Theoretical Perspective on Smell is the first collection of scholarly articles to be devoted exclusively to philosophical research on olfaction. The essays, published here for the first time, bring together leading theorists working on smell in a format that allows for deep engagement with the emerging field, while also providing those new to the philosophy of smell with a resource to begin their journey. The volume's 14 chapters are organized into four parts:

I. The Importance and Beauty of Smell
II. Smell in Time and Space
III. What We Perceive through Smell
IV. Smell and Other Senses

The collection solidifies the area as an important emerging branch of perceptual philosophy by presenting the cutting edge research being done by innovative early career researchers, as well as by those more senior and established within the field.
