Out of the Cave: A Natural Philosophy of Mind and Knowing (The MIT Press) by Mark L. Johnson, Don M. Tucker
Requirements: .PDF reader, 18 MB
Overview: From a philosopher and a neuropsychologist, a radical rethinking of certain traditional views about human cognition and behavior.
Plato’s Allegory of the Cave trapped us in the illusion that mind is separate from body and from the natural and physical world. Knowledge had to be eternal and absolute. Recent scientific advances, however, show that our bodies shape mind, thought, and language in a deep and pervasive way. In Out of the Cave, Mark Johnson and Don Tucker–a philosopher and a neuropsychologist–propose a radical rethinking of certain traditional views about human cognition and behavior. They argue for a theory of knowing as embodied, embedded, enactive, and emotionally based. Knowing is an ongoing process–shaped by our deepest biological and cultural values.
