Cognitive Symbionts. Expanding the Scope of Cognitive Science With Fungi
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract It has been argued that fungi have cognitive capacities, and even conscious experiences. While these arguments risk ushering in unproductive disputes about how words like “mind,” “cognitive,” “sentient,” and “conscious” should be used, paying close attention to key properties of fungal life can also be uncontroversially productive for ...
