The Embodied Mind: Cognitive Science and Human Experience (1991) is a book by Francisco Varela, Evan Thompson, and Eleanor Rosch.

Blurb:

The Embodied Mind provides a unique, sophisticated treatment of the spontaneous and reflective dimension of human experience. The authors argue that only by having a sense of common ground between mind in Science and mind in experience can our understanding of cognition be more complete. Toward that end, they develop a dialogue between cognitive science and Buddhist meditative psychology and situate it in relation to other traditions such as phenomenology and psychoanalysis.
