I just wanted to announce the release of the important and much anticipated book "The Blind Spot - Why Science Cannot Ignore Human Experience" by Adam Frank, Marcelo Gleiser and Evan Thompson.
https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262048804/the-blind-spot/

Here's a recent article relating it to the meaning crisis: https://bigthink.com/13-8/why-science-must-contend-with-human-experience/

For the occasion, I propose to the (enactive and meaning-making) community to join a dedicated private Reading group channel of The Enacting Club, for constructive and critical participatory sense making.

If you are interested, please just DM me here or on X (https://twitter.com/ki_cog) and I will send you the link.

A compelling argument for including the human perspective within science, and for how human experience makes science possible.“This is by far the best book...

Big Think

At the heart of many scientific challenges lies a lack of understanding of the human observer and their lived experiences.

For those who may be interested, I'm planning (after "The Blind Spot") to later do a reading group about a very important and seminal little book/long article about a general map of the contemporary paradigms of sciences and technologies of cognition (freely available online): https://scybernethics.org/whence-perceptual-meaning-a-cartography-of-current-ideas-varela-f-j-1992/.

I will announce it in this channel.
