Title: The Logic of Affect
First published: 1999
Description: Most attempts to trace the roots of current scientific approaches to the mind have ignored the contributions of post-Kantian German idealism. Paul Redding here shows the relevance of this philosophical tradition to an understanding of the mind and its embodiment as well as the relation of feeling to cognition. This innovative book demonstrates how new insights can be brought to the study of mentality and consciousness by considering previously overlooked interpretations.
