Biography
Gualtiero Piccinini is Florence G. Kline Professor and Curators' Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the University of Missouri. He received the Simon Award (2014) and the Barwise Prize (2018). His publications include Physical Computation (2015), Neurocognitive Mechanisms (2020), and The Physical Signature of Computation (with Neal G. Anderson, 2024).
"This volume brings together some of the top researchers in philosophy of neuroscience to address some of the major issues in the field. The novelty and breadth of the contributions are really impressive. Clearly, the authors are not looking to just re-tread old ground but to advance philosophical discussion in a way informed by the most cutting-edge neuroscientific results."
Dan Burnston, Tulane University, USA
"This is a superb collection and is highly recommended."
