AUTHOR=Feldman Jerome A. TITLE=Actionability and Simulation: No Representation without Communication JOURNAL=Frontiers in Psychology VOLUME=7 YEAR=2016 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/psychology/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2016.01457 DOI=10.3389/fpsyg.2016.01457 ISSN=1664-1078 ABSTRACT=

There remains considerable controversy about how the brain operates. This review focuses on brain activity rather than just structure and on concepts of action and actionability rather than truth conditions. Neural Communication is reviewed as a crucial aspect of neural encoding. Consequently, logical inference is superseded by neural simulation. Some remaining mysteries are discussed.
