The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition
Author:Shaun Gallagher, Albert Newen, Leon De Bruin
Edition:1st Edition
This work examines how the mind is shaped by the body, environment, and social interactions rather than existing solely within the brain. It integrates perspectives from philosophy, neuroscience, psychology, and cognitive science to analyze perception, action, emotion, language, and social understanding, highlighting how cognition emerges through dynamic engagement with the world.
