Krasny: An Introduction to Philosophical Thinking

Synopsis
An exploration of colour perception and consciousness. The narrative follows a specific philosophical puzzle, without reference to any particular philosophers and is useful to teachers not familiar with academic philosophy. It provides visual illustration of the intuitions behind philosophical concepts such as secondary qualities, sense data, idealism and the private language problem. It can provide an access to modern philosophical thinking about perception.
