Promotional graphic for the book Intertwined Creatures: The Embodied Cognitive Science of Self and Other by Anthony Chemero. The image shows a colorful, symmetrical, abstract book cover beside a quote praising the book as an original and engaging contribution to contemporary philosophies of embodiment. Text at the top reads “Now Available!” and a banner at the bottom says “Save 20% with code CUP20SM at cup.columbia.edu.”
Now available! Deeply interdisciplinary and engagingly written, INTERTWINED CREATURES makes an urgent case for seeing the self as social—especially in the age of AI—with radical consequences for ethics and politics. buff.ly/1aBxyH7 @tonychemero.bsky.social
