Misleading sentence in the header.

[edit]

Enactivism as introduced in 'The Embodied Mind' by Varela Thompson and Rosch suggested that the environment or world is enacted by us, not independently pre-given from which we selectively create our environment. I believe the second sentence in the lead: " It claims that our environment is one which we selectively create through our capacities to interact with the world" does suggest a pre-given world from which we enact our environment, and thus gives a wrong account from the start. I propose we replace it with 'It claims that the environment of an organism is brought about, or enacted, by the active exercise of that organism's sensorimotor processes' with an appropriate reference from The Embodied Mind. I welcome any comments on this.

No response to my above proposal for editing, so I did it.
