This investigation deals with the history of the reception of phenomenological philosophy in cognitive science and how this reception has altered and continues to shape the traditional view of cognition inspired by the computer metaphor of mind. The claim will be espoused that cognitive science is not devoid of a philosophical perspective and cognitivism will be characterized precisely as the philosophy behind much work in cognitive science. In conclusion, the irreducibility of philosophical questioning to cognitive science will be defended and reasons will be given as to why it matters to mount such defense.
