cognition in the wild. Hutchins.
<blockquote>
Nervous systems do not form representations of the world, they can only form representations of interactions with the world.[3]
The emphasis on finding and describing "knowledge structures" that are somewhere "inside" the individual encourages us to overlook the fact that human cognition is always situated in a complex sociocultural world and cannot be unaffected by it.
