The held works cite Thompson (2007) chiefly for the enactive thesis of life-mind continuity: cognition and mind are continuous with the self-maintaining, self-producing organization of living systems. Bruineberg et al. use it to link the free-energy principle to enactivism. Ciaunica et al. cite it for embodied cognition and interactions 'from cell to society'. Keijzer places it among embodied approaches, and Fábregas-Tejeda and Sims treat it as a panextensionalist, strong life-mind continuity position.
The continuity of life and mind thesis, as defended by enactivist philosophers of biology (Jonas 1966/2001; Di Paolo 2005; Thompson 2007), states that both these questions should be tackled at once.

it is possible to retrace the impact of such irreducible interactions between autonomous systems “all the way from cell to society” (Thompson, 2007; Levin and Dennett, 2020)
