Complexity and cognition

Domenico Parisi

pp. 39-49

Abstract

How are complexity and cognition related? In this paper I will examine two aspects of their relationship. I will first ask in what sense (human) cognition can be considered as an example of a complex system. Then I will examine how human cognition reacts to complexity, how much we can understand systems that should be described as complex.
