Introduction

for an epistemology of the human being

Tommaso Bertolotti

pp. 1-10

During the research that lead to this book, I focused on three topics that I found pivotal for shaping human reasoning: the mechanisms underlying the development of scientific modeling, the distributions of knowledge in the environment amounting to cognitive niche construction, and the "epistemic immunizations' that, compared with higher regimes of rationality such as the ones displayed by science and logic, produce what is defined as irrationality.
