Body, Time, Space Local Structures of Consciousness T-Reality Series - Volume 7 Neuro-Cognitive DomainHow does experience become local experience?Why does the world always appear from a body, within temporal continuity, and through an oriented space?In Body, Time, Space, the seventh volume of the T-Reality Series, Kheprias A. addresses one of the most important questions in philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and neurophenomenology: the embodied, temporal, and spatial structure of the experiential field.This book argues that body, time, and space should not be treated as mere contents of consciousness, but as local structures of experiential organization. The body is examined as the operative center of lived experience; time as the form of continuity and the condition of worldly stability; and space as a field of orientation, distance, accessibility, and practical relevance. From their integration there emerges the structural grammar of situated experience.Rather than simply repeating the predictive paradigm developed in the previous volume, this book pushes the inquiry further. It shows how predictive cognition, embodied cognition, and phenomenological analysis converge in explaining the local form of lived experience.Major themes include: - the body as the axis of localization- interoception, proprioception, and agency- lived temporality, memory, and anticipation- the construction of the present- the stabilization of the lived world- embodied spatiality and the oriented world- position, distance, depth, and the coordinates of experience- the relation between egocentric and shareable space- the integration of body, time, and space- the emergence of a relatively stable experiential centerWritten in a style that is both rigorous and readable, the volume engages major figures in the contemporary debate, including Husserl, Merleau-Ponty, Zahavi, Gallagher, Varela, Thompson, Noë, Damasio, Clark, Friston, and Seth.This book will be of particular interest to readers working in or exploring: - philosophy of mind- neurophilosophy- cognitive science- embodied cognition- predictive processing- consciousness and subjective experience- contemporary phenomenology- the relation between brain, body, and worldBody, Time, Space is a foundational volume in the Neuro-Cognitive Domain of T-Reality: a major theoretical step toward understanding how experience is organized as a world for a subject, and how a relatively stable subjective center can emerge from that local structure.
