Produktinformationen zu „Sensorimotor Life (PDF)“
How accurate is the picture of the human mind that has emerged from studies in neuroscience, psychology, and cognitive science? Anybody with an interest in how minds work - how we learn about the world and how we remember people and events - may feel dissatisfied with the answers contemporary science has to offer.
Sensorimotor Life draws on current theoretical developments in the enactive approach to life and mind. It examines and expands the premises of the sciences of the human mind, while developing an alternative picture closer to people's daily experiences. Enactive ideas are applied and extended, providing a theoretically rich, naturalistic account of meaning and agency. The book includes a dynamical systems description of different types of sensorimotor regularities or sensorimotor
contingencies; a dynamical interpretation of Piaget's theory of equilibration to ground the concept of sensorimotor mastery; and a theory of agency as organized networks of sensorimotor schemes, as well as its implicatons for embodied subjectivity.
Written for students and researchers of cognitive science, the authors offer a fuller view of the mind, a view better attuned to the experiences of people who live, work, love, struggle, and age, thrown into a world of meaningful relations they help create. Additionally, the book is of interest to neuroscientists, psychiatrists, and philosophers of science.

Autoren-Porträt von Ezequiel Di Paolo, Thomas Buhrmann, Xabier Barandiaran
Prof. Ezequiel Di Paolo is a full-time Research Professor working at Ikerbasque, the Basque Science Foundation, in San Sebastián, Spain. He received an MSc in Nuclear Engineering from the Instituto Balseiro in Argentina and a DPhil in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence from the University of Sussex. His interdisciplinary work on the enactive approach to life, mind, and society integrates insights from cognitive science, phenomenology, philosophy ofmind and computational modelling. His recent research focus is on embodied intersubjectivity. He is the author of over 150 peer-reviewed publications and Editor-in-Chief of the journal Adaptive Behavior.
Dr. Thomas Buhrmann is a postdoctoral researcher in the department of Philosophy at the University of the Basque Country. He completed both his Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence and his M.Sc. in Evolutionary and Adaptive Systems at the University of Sussex. His research interests lie in the areas of enactive cognition and sensorimotor coordination, with a focus on models of non-computational cognitive processes. His recent work, as part of the EU project "Extending sensorimotor contingencies to
cognition", has focused on the development of agent-based simulation models and the conceptual clarification and extension of the sensorimotor approach to perception.
Dr. Xabier E. Barandiaran is a philosopher of mind and cognitive science, with a special focus on simulation modelling techniques and complex system analysis applied to the study of the foundations of cognitive systems and philosophy of mind. He obtained his MSc on Evolutionary and Adaptive System from the University of Sussex (UK), and his PhD from the University of the Basque Country (Spain). Dr. Barandiaran currently holds a Lecturer position at the Department of Philosophy of the University
of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), and works as a researcher at the IAS-Research Center for Life, Mind, and Society.
