    Edited by Tim Bayne, Axel Cleeremans, Patrick Wilken ...

  • The Predictive Mind

    by Jakob Hohwy ...

It is the theory that the brain is essentially a hypothesis-testing mechanism, one that attempts to minimise the error of its predictions about the sensory input it receives from the world.

  • How the Mind Comes into Being

    Introducing Cognitive Science from a Functional and Computational Perspective

    by Martin V. Butz, Esther F. Kutter ...
    More than 2000 years ago Greek philosophers were pondering the puzzling dichotomy between our physical bodies and our seemingly non-physical minds.

    The Senses as Doorways to Lost Memories

  • Exploring Frontiers of the Mind-Brain Relationship

    Edited by Alexander Moreira-Almeida, Franklin Santana Santos ...
    Series series Behavioral Science and Psychology (R0)
    The conscious mind defines human existence. Many consider the brain as a computer, and they attempt to explain consciousness as emerging at a critical, but unspecified, threshold level of complex computation among neurons. The brain-as-computer model, however, fails to account for phenomenal experience and portrays consciousness as an impotent, after-the-fact epiphenomenon lacking causal power. ... Read more
