A critical common sense underlies inquiry including that of neuroscience. Thus a pragmatist orientation to neurosc...

A critical common sense underlies inquiry including that of neuroscience. Thus a pragmatist orientation to neuroscience is about foraging for coherence; not overselling neuroscience. Foraging for coherence is the search for adaptation - diverse epistemic orientation tied ideally to learning about oneself, one's nature, and one's history in the context of learning about the brain. Neuroscience is about us: Our desires, habits, styles of reason, human vulnerability, and abuse. The language of the neuron, Foraging for coherence is a pragmatist philosophy of the brain.
