Excerpt

The comprehensive analysis of substantive and foundational issues in neurodynamics by Atmanspacher and Rotter (2008) provides one component of the conceptual background for this proposal, notably in regard to explicit clarification of ontic states and epistemic descriptions, and the cogency or their distinction and relationships: the former referring to ontic states ‘just as they are’, context independent, without any reference to an observer or knowledge; the latter designating the knowledge (generally incomplete) that can be obtained about an ontic state. …
