Abstract

This book explores the conceptual underpinnings of cognitive neuroscience, questioning conventional approaches such as the computer analogy and folk psychology in understanding brain function. Authored by Oscar Vilarroya, it emphasizes an evolutionary perspective, viewing the brain as an adaptive organ shaped by evolutionary history rather than a computational machine. The text critiques the prevalent outside-in strategy for studying the brain and advocates for an inside-out approach that considers the brain's anticipatory nature and enactive cognition. The book is aimed at researchers and practitioners in neuroscience, offering a critical examination of current methodologies and proposing a framework based on enaction and embodied cognition.

Abstract

This book examines philosophical and scientific implications of Neodarwinism relative to recent empirical data. It develops explanations of social behavior and cognition through analysis of mental capabilities and consideration of ethical issues. It includes debate within cognitive science among explanations of social and moral phenomena from philosophy, evolutionary and cognitive psychology, neurobiology, linguistics, and computer science. The series Cognitive Science provides an original corpus of scholarly work that makes explicit the import of cognitive-science research for philosophical analysis. Topics include the nature, structure, and justification of knowledge, cognitive architectures and development, brain-mind theories, and consciousness.
