Observer-dependent categories are forms that count on perception for its validity. An example of an observer-dependent category is like social sciences like sociology because humans create these observer-independent categories for their validity (Barrett 2009).

And what is not seen in the human perspective. What did the author mean when they stated that the mind is more like a recipe book than a machine?
