This book offers original insights around a fascinating idea:
Perception and the rest of cognition, crucially including language,
are closer to each other than the Cartesian tradition dared to
dream. By combining recent results in cognitive neuroscience, the
philosophy of perception, and the syntax of natural language, the
book demonstrates that there is continuity between higher and lower
cognition. Percepts from perceptual experience are propositional,
conceptual, and they are not divorced from objective reality. Human
cognition is merged with the natural world, able to reflect it in
complex ways and interact with it in modalities that are since the
very beginning computationally complex and rich in content.
