The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition de Albert Newen

The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition: Oxford Library of Psychology

Editat de Albert Newen, Leon De Bruin, Shaun Gallagher
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 sep 2018
4E cognition (embodied, embedded, enactive, and extended) is a relatively young and thriving field of interdisciplinary research. It assumes that cognition is shaped and structured by dynamic interactions between the brain, body, and both the physical and social environments.With essays from leading scholars and researchers, The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition investigates this recent paradigm. It addresses the central issues of embodied cognition by focusing on recent trends, such as Bayesian inference and predictive coding, and presenting new insights, such as the development of false belief understanding. The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition also introduces new theoretical paradigms for understanding emotion and conceptualizing the interactions between cognition, language, and culture. With an entire section dedicated to the application of 4E cognition in disciplines such as psychiatry and robotics, and critical notes aimed at stimulating discussion, this Oxford handbook is the definitive guide to 4E cognition.Aimed at neuroscientists, psychologists, psychiatrists, and philosophers, The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition will be essential reading for anyone with an interest in this young and thriving field.

Recenzii

What I like most about this book is that it is not just a collection of what 4E Cognition is, it is also a rigorous critique of what it is not: The final chapter in sections one to nine is a critical review of the preceding discussions, providing a balanced view of the topic area. I would recommend this book to anyone with an interest in cognition, not only to those interested in whether it is embodied, embedded, extended or enacted. The notion of 4E cognition does have its challenges, and this book does not shy away from this. I feel even those with a more critical view of 4E Cognition would enjoy The Oxford handbook of 4E Cognition, and certainly enjoy the critical chapters in each section. Overall, it presents the characterisation of cognition in a clear manner throughout, and while it is a comprehensive read at over 900 pages long, it is a very interesting read none-the-less.
The ten sections and forty-eight contributions of this handsomely produced handbook explore both these foundational questions about the nature of cognition and embodiment and the applications of 4E perspectives to social cognition, language and culture and specific applications in, for example, psychopathology and aesthetics. Especially commendable is the inclusion of critical notes which offer criticisms of the contributions in each chapter from exponents of the mainstream tradition. This enables a real sense of dialogue both between post-representationalists and the mainstream and from within the variously ambitious forms of 4E-Cognition.
The essays in this compilation look at how embodied, embedded, enactive, and extended (i.e., 4E) cognition can be conceptualized in relation to modern understanding of cognitive science. The collection does a good job of highlighting the discourse concerning this relatively new area of psychology, because the contributors differ in the degree to which they believe 4E cognition can be incorporated into or build on more traditional models. This book is written specifically for scholars at the PhD level, and it will be appropriate for those who have a strong background in philosophy, neuroscience, and cognitive psychology.
"[The Oxford Handbook of 4E Cognition] is a substantial tome, coming in at nearly 1,000 pages and forty-eight contributions. The most useful innovation in this volume is the inclusion of critical reflections at the end of each section. These will prove especially valuable for the reader who is less familiar with the field.
