higher, deeper

[Jerin]

Though not as radical,
Thomas Reid was the higher (deeper) philosopher than David Hume..


In philosophy,
a Scottish Enlightenment exemplifies proto neurophilosophers.
For both Reid and Hume accords a dissection of cognitions, empowering our ratiocinations - thought more profound than what philosophy per se can philosophize.

In cognitive neuroscience,
current neuroscientists may aptly be defined as x-phi(s) experimental philosophers
(see experimental philosophy),
with extreme emphases on empiricism, experimentation and verification to the rigor of a science.

What a neuroscientist lack in keen ratiocinations,
a neurophilosopher can compensate for,
and vice versa,
a neuroscientist can compensate for to rigor a philosopher.

Neurophilosophers nowadays mostly used tools as data to observe what energizes as we philosophizes..
tools and data that are designed and discovered by neuroscientists respectively.
