Sentence
They
propose
that
the
brain
manages
numerical
systems
with
circuitry
that
is
equipped
for
action
related
to
"more
than-less
than",
"faster-slower",
"nearer-farther",
"bigger-smaller",
computations
of
"any
kind
of
stuff
in
the
external
world".
This
neural
activity
allows
us
to
successfully
reach,
grasp,
throw
or
point.
Bueti
and
Walsh
argue
further
that,
"it
is
on
these
abilities
that
discrete
numerical
abilities
hitched
an
evolutionary
ride,"
given
the
primitive
need
to
make
these
kinds
of
judgments
of
space
and
time.
Number
then,
as
a
measure,
is
not
primary
—
what
comes
first
is
our
need
to
move
accurately.
Quizzes for review
They propose that the brain manages numerical systems with circuitry that is equipped for action related to more than-less than
, faster-slower
, nearer-farther
, bigger-smaller
, computations of any kind of stuff in the external world
. This neural activity allows us to successfully reach, grasp, throw or point. Bueti and Walsh argue further that, it is on these abilities that discrete numerical abilities hitched an evolutionary ride,
given the primitive need to make these kinds of judgments of space and time. Number then, as a measure, is not primary — what comes first is our need to move accurately.
