Las affordances son las oportunidades para la acción presentes en nuestros entornos. Es, quizás, el objeto de percepción más común en nuestro día a día: percibimos los pomos de las puertas como agarrables, las mismas puertas como traspasables, las escaleras como escalables, etc. Pese a que la influencia del término está creciendo mucho debido al auge de las ciencias cognitivas corporizadas y situadas, no existe una obra de referencia en el mundo hispanohablante que presente la idea de affordance y su potencial para distintas teorías y ciencias. Este volumen, el primero en lengua castellana completamente dedicado a este tema, viene a llenar ese hueco ofreciendo a los lectores una selección de capítulos especialmente escritos para esta ocasión, en el que se incluye una introducción teórica e histórica a las affordances, varios estudios filosóficos sobre el tema y finalmente una sección con distintas aplicaciones de las affordances en diversos campos de estudio y disciplinas, desde la robótica o el arte a la biología o las ciencias sociales.
