| 4929 | Dreams and imagery show the brain can generate awareness and meaning without input [Edelman/Tononi] |
| 4940 | Physicists see information as a measure of order, but for biologists it is symbolic exchange between animals [Edelman/Tononi] |

| 23796 | Naturalists must explain both representation, and what is represented [Schulte] |
| 23806 | Naturalist accounts of representation must match the views of cognitive science [Schulte] |
