Abstract

FULL IN DRIVE The relation between the body and higher-order mental functions has been a topic of discussion for many decades, if not centuries, in philosophy as well as psychology, and has more recently been widely discussed in cognitive neuroscience, robotics, and artificial intelligence. In philosophy, the so-called mind-body problem has a long tradition.
