Abstract

Open peer commentary on the article “Varela’s Radical Proposal: How to Embody and Open Up Cognitive Science” by Kristian Moltke Martiny. Upshot: I welcome the perspective presented in Martiny’s target article. In this commentary I push for clarity on three matters: (a) The concept of embodiment; (b) The status of the type of knowledge generated in the phenomenological interview; and (c) The notion of openness in relation to interdisciplinarity and the disciplinary identity of the cognitive sciences.
