Product Description

Review
...this book is a massive interdisciplinary achievement and a major contribution to a better understanding of the role of embodiemtn in consciousness and cognition ... His book combines an impressive knowledge of contemporary research in the cognitive and neurocognitive sciences with a keen sense of the deep and important philosophical issues this research raises. It deserves to be read by anyone interested in the contribution of embodiment to cognition. Elisabeth Pacherie, Mind Any reader wishing for an exhaustive survey of neuroscience as it relates to the question of embodiment could not wish for a better guide than Gallagher. He is a philosopher who both knows and practises the relevant science, and his syntheses of the data are convincing because they never stray too far from their empirical base...This is a hugely well-informed and clearly reasoned intervention that will benefit both research and theory in the field. Vincent Deary, Times Literary Supplement ...an extraordinarily rich and important collection... It deserves a wide audience Jonathan Cole, Pragmatics and Cognition
