Evan Thompson Quotes

To Deny The Truth Of Our Own Experience In The Scientific Study Of Ourselves Is Not Only Unsatisfactory; It Is To Render The Scientific Study Of Ourselves Without A Subject Matter. But To Suppose That Science Cannot Contribute To An Understanding Of Our Experience May Be To Abandon, Within The Modern Context, The Task Of Self-understanding. Experience And Scientific Understanding Are Like Two Legs Without Which We Cannot Walk.

We Can Phrase This Very Same Idea In Positive Terms: It Is Only By Having A Sense Of Common Ground Between Cognitive Science And Human Experience That Our Understanding Of Cognition Can Be More Complete And Reach A Satisfying Level. We Thus Propose A Constructive Task: To Enlarge The Horizon Of Cognitive Science To Include The Broader Panorama Of Human, Lived Experience In A Disciplined, Transformative Analysis.
