Abstract
Dynamical philosophy changes our views concerning philosophy of mind, epist emology, metaphysics and ethics, vagueness and truth. Dynamical cognition t hesis affirms intractable richness, all in preserving the structure. Mathem atical description fits the middle level of a cognitive system. Supervenien ce helps the plausibility of nonreductionism. Epistemology is transformed b y taking into account morphological content as the cognitive background. Me taphysics offers on rich universe without any parts, with possibility to co rrectly assert truth about it in an indirect manner. Vagueness is transvalu ated. Metaethics is irrealist. Intentionality is related to the qualitative consciousness. Overview of author's rich philosophical itinerary provides material to be incorporated into the postanalytic dynamical philosophy appr oach which author pursues since he has encountered Terry Horgan.
