Most of what humans do and experience is best understood in terms of dynamicallyunfolding interactions with the environment. Many philosophers and cognitive scientists nowacknowledge the critical importance of situated, environment-involving embodied engagements as ameans of understanding basic minds -- including basic forms of human mentality. Yet many of thesesame theorists hold fast to the view that basic minds are necessarily or essentially contentful --that they represent conditions the world might be in. In this book, Daniel Hutto and Erik Myinpromote the cause of a radically enactive, embodied approach to cognition that holds that some kindsof minds -- basic minds -- are neither best explained by processes involving the manipulation ofcontents nor inherently contentful. Hutto and Myin oppose the widely endorsed thesis that cognitionalways and everywhere involves content. They defend the counter-thesis that there can beintentionality and phenomenal experience without content, and demonstrate the advantages of theirapproach for thinking about scaffolded minds and consciousness
