It has no function without the body and the environmental niche it occupies. The Ecological Brain is an attempt to explain this trivial yet often neglected embeddedness, integrating recent knowledge from psychology and neuroscience research."" György Buzsáki, M.D., Ph.D., Biggs Professor of Neural Sciences, NYU Neuroscience Institute, New York University, USA ""After decades of asking what your head’s inside of, ecological psychologists are beginning to ask, “what's inside your head?” In The Ecological Brain, Luis Favela takes seriously the claim that mind is low-dimensional dynamics in a brain-body-environment system. By synthesizing complexity theory, nonlinear dynamics, and recent work on neural manifolds, he points a way forward for understanding perception and action at neural, organism, and ecological scales."" William H. Warren, Chancellor’s Professor of Cognitive Science, Brown University, USA" Author InformationLuis H. Favela is Associate Professor of Philosophy and Cognitive Sciences at the University of Central Florida, USA, and is a fellow with the Research Corporation for Science Advancement.
