If science works the way we believe it does, then nothing is beyond intellectualization. Either the world and everything in it is accessible to empirical observation and the formation and validation of models (i.e., hypothesis formulation and testing, theory development) or it is not. If there are things that are inaccessible to this process, then there is magic beyond the veil. Where is the veil? Given accessibility as described above, then there are those things that we have learned to measure and those things we have to learn to measure. Neuroscience is busily taking things from the latter set and placing them, slowly in the former. |
