In supporting the view that the brain is not the producer but the mediator of a person’s activity, Fuchs replaces the cognitivist world-mirroring by a concept of world-making in neuroscience: organisms are motivated to actively look for elements of the environment that are significant for their purposes. Understanding human experience and action primarily as acts of a living being contributes to comprehending the brain as an organ of the human person. Fuchs concludes that “human persons become at one with themselves not in a mental or neural inner world, but in their bodily and inter-bodily “being-in-the-world” and “acting-in-the-world”” (p. 290). Ecology of the brain supports a clear shift from a naturalistic to a personalistic concept of the human being in neuroscience especially. This requires a “cultural biology”, as Fuchs puts it, and opens up new opportunities for the study of how we enact life in a shared social world.

不可撤销：一种死亡率哲学

在支持大脑不是人的活动的生产者而是活动者的观点的同时，福克斯用神经科学中的世界创造概念代替了认知主义的世界镜像：生物体被积极地寻找重要的环境元素为了他们的目的。理解人类的经验和行为主要是作为一种生物，这有助于理解大脑是人类的器官。福克斯得出的结论是，“人与人合而为一，不是在精神或神经内在世界中，而是在他们的身体与身体之间”在世间”和“在世间行事””（p 290）。大脑的生态学尤其支持神经科学领域中人从自然主义观念向个人主义观念的明显转变。正如Fuchs所说，这需要“文化生物学”，
