Summary
Imagination allows us to escape from the mundane and the real world, yet it also seems to furnish us with knowledge about that world-when we plan for the future, for instance. Ten original essays illuminate the epistemic role of imagination, blending perspectives from philosophy of mind, cognitive science, epistemology, aesthetics, and ethics.
