Unsolved problems in cognitive science

There are fewer celebrated findings than unsolved problems in cognitive science; however one can list:
* How much human intervention is needed to produce a cognition?
* What is the relationship of personhood to cognition?
* Why is the conceptual horizon wider for some than for others?
* What is consciousness?
* What is love?
* What is hurt?
* What is the relationship between cognition and consciousness?
* Why is the 'hard problem of consciousness', explaining subjective experience, so hard?
* How much time is needed by the brain to comprehend its insufficiency?
* What is death?
Many of these questions are attempts at a scientific approach to problems in Philosophy, such as the Mind-Body Problem.
