Bodies and Other Objects: The Sensorimotor Foundations of Cognition

This work is written for students, scholars, and anyone with an interest in embodied cognition - the claim that the human mind cannot be understood without regard for the actions and capacities of the body.

The impulse to write this book was a dissatisfaction with the inconsistent, and often shallow, use of the term 'embodied cognition'.

This text attempts to reframe cognitive science with a unified theory of embodied cognition in which sensorimotor elements provide the basis for cognition, including symbolic exchanges that arise within a society of agents.
