Supersizing the Mind: Embodiment, Action and Cognitive Extension 

Supersizing the Mind: Embodiment, Action and Cognitive Extension

Andy Clark

Jerry Fodor writes:

So, for example, you might have thought that the distinction between, on the one hand, a creature’s mind and, on the other, the ‘external’ world that the creature lives in is sufficiently robust to be getting on with; and that commerce between the two, both in perception and in action, is typically ‘indirect’, where that means something like ‘mediated by thought’. But plausible as that may seem, the thesis of Andy Clark’s new book, Supersizing the Mind, is that the mind v. world dualism is untenable.
