I wish to express my thanks to J. Jan Koenderink, Osvaldo da Pos, Lia Formigari, Edgar Morscher, and Roberto Poli for their comments and criticism.

I would also gratefully mention the atmosphere of the Mitteleuropa Foundation, at which many chapters of the book have been conceived and written, while thinking of the future development of Franz Brentano’s ideas in cognitive science research.
