Making Sense of Non-Sense

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The enactive approach replaces the classical computer metaphor of mind with emphasis on embodiment and social interaction as the sources of our goals and concerns. Researchers from a range of disciplines unite to address the challenge of how to account for the more uniquely human aspects of cognition, including the abstract and the nonsensical.

Rezensionen

"It provides an important contribution to the enactive project of clarifying what cognition viewed as sense-making consist of. The book's originality lies in its unusual angle on the topic, namely by focussing on forms of sense-making ... . It offers plenty of interdisciplinary insight and both theoretical and empirical support to the idea that nonsense, far from being a marginal side-effect or the opposite of cognition, is a window into the very workings of the embodied mind."
