Summary/Abstract: This article aims to highlight and complement certain themes of the book Distri- buted Cognition. From Heuristics to Mechanisms [Poznanie rozproszone. Od heurystyk do mechanizmów] (2022). This monograph considers the current situation facing cognitive science from the perspective of the concept of distributed cognition and related research. The book’s focus is on the structure of this concept and its place in research paradigms. In light of the current state of cognitive science, here the emphasis is on presenting the still underestimated potential of distributed cognition as a universal understanding of cognition, the actual research implications of this perspective, its relationship with mechanisms and its integrative potential.
