Epilogue
Keyword(s):
This chapter presents some reflections on the meaning of life-mind continuity for the proposals presented in this book. It compares this concept with a pragmatist take on the historical relations between life, mind, and environment as defended by William James and John Dewey and with related concepts used by philosophers like Hans Jonas and Maurice Merleau-Ponty and psychologists like Jean Piaget. In this light, the chapter offers some final thoughts on the concept of sensorimotor life and on the need to continue working on further developments of enactivist ideas in terms of scenarios that are more complex and as an ongoing critical assessment of the fundamental philosophical premises of the approach.
