This work examines the interconnections between logic, epistemology, and
sciences within the Naturalist tradition. It presents a scheme that connects
logic, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, and cognition, emphasizing
scale-invariant, self-organizing dynamics across organizational tiers of
nature. The inherent logic of agency exists in natural processes at various
levels, under information exchanges. It applies to humans, animals, and
artifactual agents. The common human-centric, natural language-based logic is
an example of complex logic evolved by living organisms that already appears in
the simplest form at the level of basal cognition of unicellular organisms.
Thus, cognitive logic stems from the evolution of physical, chemical, and
biological logic. In a computing nature framework with a self-organizing
agency, innovative computational frameworks grounded in
morphological/physical/natural computation can be used to explain the genesis
of human-centered logic through the steps of naturalized logical processes at
lower levels of organization. The Extended Evolutionary Synthesis of living
agents is essential for understanding the emergence of human-level logic and
the relationship between logic and information processing/computational
epistemology. We conclude that more research is needed to elucidate the details
of the mechanisms linking natural phenomena with the logic of agency in nature.Comment: 20 pages, no figure
