The Embodied Mind: Cognitive Science and Human Experience - Book by Francisco J. Varela, Evan Thompson, Eleanor Rosch

Name: The Embodied Mind: Cognitive Science and Human Experience
Author: Francisco J. Varela, Evan Thompson, Eleanor Rosch

The Embodied Mind by Francisco Varela, Evan Thompson, and Eleanor Rosch bridges cognitive science and human experience, introducing the concept of "embodied cognition." The authors challenge traditional Cartesian dualism, arguing that cognition arises from the body's interaction with its environment. Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and Buddhist philosophy, they propose a more holistic understanding of mind, experience, and consciousness, emphasizing that cognition is not purely abstract but deeply intertwined with physical and emotional experience.
