The historical and epistemological dimensions of two common concepts today in use in cognitive neurosciences will be explored: 'degeneracy' of the nervous system and behavioral 'dexterity'. The common idea - related to plasticity, redundancy, and individual variability (all constitutive features of the new model of the mind-body relationship) – will be proposed as a key to understand the connection between development and functioning of the central nervous system and the development of the cognitive system in complex behaviors.

Abstract
The historical and epistemological dimensions of two common concepts today in use in cognitive neurosciences will be explored: 'degeneracy' of the nervous system and behavioral 'dexterity'. The common idea - related to plasticity, redundancy, and individual variability (all constitutive features of the new model of the mind-body relationship) – will be proposed as a key to understand the connection between development and functioning of the central nervous system and the development of the cognitive system in complex behaviors.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
