[Imagining] is an exceptionally well-written work. --International Philosophical Quarterly</p><p>Drawing on his own experiences of imagining, Edward S. Casey describes the essential forms that imagination assumes in everyday life. In a detailed analysis of the fundamental features of all imaginative experience, Casey shows imagining to be eidetically distinct from perceiving and defines it as a radically autonomous act, involving a characteristic freedom of mind. A new preface places Imagining within the context of current issues in philosophy and psychology.</p><p>[use one Casey bio for both Imagining and Remembering]<br/>Edward S.
