The Bounds of Cognition

Description:

"The Bounds of Cognition articulates and defends a theory of "the mark of the cognitive," a common-sense approach to cognitive science that differentiates between cognitive and noncognitive processes. Addressing the limits of the embodied mind, the mark of the cognitive is a refreshing alternative approach to "extended cognition," whose advocates - including a growing number of leading philosophers and psychologists - argue that cognitive processing is not "brain bound," and that the mind extends beyond the boundary of the brain and body."--Jacket.
