Klappentext zu „The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition “
4E cognition (embodied, embedded, enactive, and extended) is a relatively young and thriving field of interdisciplinary research. It assumes that cognition is shaped and structured by dynamic interactions between the brain, body, and both the physical and social environments. With essays from leading scholars and researchers, The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition investigates this recent paradigm. It addresses the central issues of embodied cognition by focusing on recent trends, such as Bayesian inference and predictive coding, and presenting new insights, such as the development of false belief understanding. The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition also introduces new theoretical paradigms for understanding emotion and conceptualizing the interactions between cognition, language, and culture. With an entire section dedicated to the application of 4E cognition in disciplines such as psychiatry and robotics, and critical notes aimed at stimulating discussion, this Oxford handbook is the definitive guide to 4E cognition. Aimed at neuroscientists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and philosophers, The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition will be essential reading for anyone with an interest in this young and thriving field.

Pressezitat
What I like most about this book is that it is not just a collection of what 4E Cognition is, it is also a rigorous critique of what it is not: The final chapter in sections one to nine is a critical review of the preceding discussions, providing a balanced view of the topic area. I would recommend this book to anyone with an interest in cognition, not only to those interested in whether it is embodied, embedded, extended or enacted. The notion of 4E cognition does have its challenges, and this book does not shy away from this. I feel even those with a more critical view of 4E Cognition would enjoy The Oxford handbook of 4E Cognition, and certainly enjoy the critical chapters in each section. Overall, it presents the characterisation of cognition in a clear manner throughout, and while it is a comprehensive read at over 900 pages long, it is a very interesting read none-the-less.
