Varela, Bernard Pachoud, Jean-Michel Roy Stanford University Press This work aims to shed a new light on the relations between Husserlian phenomenology and present-day efforts towards a scientific theory of cognition. Its primary goal is not to present a new interpretation of Husserl's writings. Rather, the contributors consider how Husserlian phenomenology might contribute to specific contemporary theories, either by complementing or by questioning them. What clearly emerges is that Husserlian phenomenology cannot become instrumental to cognitive science without undergoing a substantial transformation. Therefore, the book's central concern is not only the progress of contemporary theories of cognition but also the reorientation of Husserlian phenomenology. Because a single volume could not encompass the numerous facets of this wide-ranging interrogation, the contributors focus on the issue of naturalization.This perspective is far-reaching enough to allow for the coverage of a great variety of topics, ranging from the general structures of intentionality, the nature of temporality and perception, the mathematical modeling of their phenomenological descriptions, to the founding epistemological and ontological principles of cognitive science "Naturalizing Phenomenology" is thus a collective reflection on the possibility of bringing a naturalized Husserlian phenomenology to bear on a scientific theory of cognition that fills the explanatory gap between the phenomenological mind and brain.
