  • Descartes, Malebranche, and the Crisis of Perception. Oxford University Press, 2017. 260p. Hardback. [Walter Ott's] work is commendable for the very careful attention he pays to the texts. ... the picture that Ott draws, of an optimistic theory of perception, based squarely on a view of what the physical world is like and how it operates, that gradually, as the need for ever more complicated mental processes unfold, lost contact with that physical world, is a fascinating one, and Ott's book deserves the same close and careful study he himself put into it.
