This comprehensive new book introduces the core history of
phenomenology and assesses its relevance to contemporary
psychology, philosophy of mind, and cognitive science. From
critiques of artificial intelligence research programs to ongoing
work on embodiment and enactivism, the authors trace how
phenomenology has produced a valuable framework for analyzing
cognition and perception, whose impact on contemporary
psychological and scientific research, and philosophical debates
continues to grow. The first part of An Introduction to
Phenomenology is an extended overview of the history and
development of phenomenology, looking at its key thinkers, focusing
particularly on Husserl, Heidegger and Merleau-Ponty, as well as
its cultural and intellectual precursors. In the second half
Chemero and Kaufer turn their attention to the contemporary
interpretations and uses of phenomenology in cognitive science,
showing that phenomenology is a living source of inspiration in
contemporary interdisciplinary studies of the mind. Kaufer and
Chemero have written a clear, jargon-free account of phenomenology,
providing abundant examples and anecdotes to illustrate and to
entertain. This book is an ideal introduction to phenomenology and
cognitive science for the uninitiated, as well as for philosophy
and psychology students keen to deepen their knowledge.
