This chapter sketches the disagreements and assumptions related to the method used in neuroimaging, and presents a detailed discussion on localism. An exchange is designed to address various issues. The chapter discusses various topics, including the association of areas and functions, modularity, and dynamics, and refers to a localization of function in the Fodor horizontal sense of modularity.
Keywords: neuroimaging, localism, modularity, localization of function, horizontal modularity
