Wilfrid Sellars (1912–1989) was an influential American philosopher known for his contributions to philosophy of mind, epistemology, and language. He is perhaps best known for articulating the distinction between the "manifest image" (the way we understand the world based on everyday experience) and the "scientific image" (the way the world is understood scientifically). This distinction highlights the relationship and potential conflicts between our intuitive understanding of the world and the scientific explanations that describe it.
