Attributes of How the Mind Comes into Being PDF
How the Mind Comes into Being PDF-More than 2000 years ago Greek philosophers were pondering the puzzling dichotomy between our physical bodies and our seemingly non-physical minds. Yet even today, it remains puzzling how our mind controls our body, and vice versa, how our body shapes our mind. How is it that we can think highly abstract thoughts, seemingly fully detached from the actual, physical reality?
This book offers an interdisciplinary introduction to embodied cognitive science, addressing the question of how the mind comes into being while actively interacting with and learning from the environment by means of the own body. By pursuing a functional and computational perspective, concrete answers are provided about the fundamental mechanisms and developing structures that must bring the mind about, taking into account insights from biology, neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy as well
as from computer science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.
The book provides introductions to the most important challenges and available computational approaches on how the mind comes into being. The book includes exercises, helping the reader to grasp the material and understand it in a broader context. References to further studies, methodological details, and current developments support more advanced studies beyond the covered material.
While the book is written in advanced textbook style with the primary target group being undergraduates in cognitive science and related disciplines, readers with a basic scientific background and a strong interest in how the mind works will find this book intriguing and revealing.

Germany.
With a Diplom with honors in computer science with a minor in psychology (University of Wurzburg, Germany, 08/2001) and a PhD in computer science (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, IL, USA, 10/2004), Dr. Butz has been pursuing interdisciplinary, collaborative research in cognitive science
for more than fifteen years. He has published more than fifty journal articles in various disciplinary and interdisciplinary journals including, for example, Neural Networks, Evolutionary Computation, Biological Cybernetics, Journal of Vision, Experimental Brain Research, PLoS ONE, and Psychological
Review. Since 09/2011 Dr. Butz has been working as a full professor in Cognitive Modeling at the University of Tubingen, Germany.
Esther Kutter has graduated with honors with a Master of Science in cognitive science (University of Tubingen, Germany, 09/2015). Her primary research focus lies in understanding how the brain represents the own body and how abstract concepts and categories are established and encoded purposefully
for enabling intelligent, goal-directed behavior. She is currently continuing her research as a PhD student in neuroscience at the department of Animal Research at the University of Tubingen.

Reviews From Customers
“This is a very timely book. It rises to the challenge of providing a basic introduction to cognitive neuroscience, while being true to the fact that the brain is embodied. This book beautifully articulates intriguing puzzles about how our mind controls the body and how our body shapes the mind. In short, this book is a brilliant and accessible synthesis” ―Professor Karl J. Friston FMedSci, FRBS, FRS Wellcome Principal Fellow and Honorary Consultant in Neuropsychiatry Scientific Director: Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging Institute of Neurology, UCL
“The last three decades have seen advancements in the core issues of cognitive science. In 1991, in a talk given at CMU, Allen Newell posed the question, ‘how can the human mind occur in the physical universe?’ This question was taken up by John Anderson as the title of his 2007 book which provided Anderson’s answer to Newell’s question. Science marches on and now Butz and Kutter provide the novice cognitive scientist an introduction to this set of deep and complex questions in the form of their very accessible and well-organized introductory textbook: How the Mind Comes Into Being. ―Professor Wayne Gray, Departments of Cognitive Science and Computer Science, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, USA –Este texto se refiere
