As I explain in my review of this book at NDPR, Hurburt and Schwitzgebel have published a ground-breaking book on the collection and use of data from first-person reports.  A good antidote against "armchair introspection" (a favorite of some philosophers of mind).  I recommend it to anyone interested in this topic, or in philosophy of mind generally, or in how scientists and philosophers can successfully collaborate.
