Hi TOK list,

As my target article about evolutionary psychology as a meta-theory
continues to be commented on, I bumped into a comment by Jana Uher.

She developed a unifying framework named* TPS-P *(Transdisciplinary
Philosophy of Science Paradigm for  Research on Individuals) Here a link
for a summary: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__researchonindividuals.org_&d=DwIFaQ&c=eLbWYnpnzycBCgmb7vCI4uqNEB9RSjOdn_5nBEmmeq0&r=HPo1IXYDhKClogP-UOpybo6Cfxxz-jIYBgjO2gOz4-A&m=PteCbF0_3SxYaCXICP5v7TZuEkSegG4Wve5qaszPOs8&s=ue8DIMAoaBDPSljWFGn0PKlYnHPRyaMgoovlsVqv6rE&e= 

I still have to study it properly, for now what I find not convincing is
her characterization of psychical vs physical, with spatiality as a
defining feature of physical and not of psychical. It seems, to my eyes, a
classic dualistic cartesian distinction: RES COGITANS (mind) vs RES EXTENSA
(matter).

)


As Gregg points out, thinking about the ultimate unit of physics as matter
is now out-dated;  it is better to think of Energy-Matter-Information.


Are you familiar with her work? Any thoughts about it?

P.S. I found out this morning that also Mike (Mascolo) published a
commentary on my article. I just looked over it, and still have to read it
properly, but thanks Mike….
