Abstract

The approach that has currently been tried to reveal about psychopathology from the biomedical model by disciplines such as psychology and psychiatry, has formally outlined these distinctions when investigating erratic behaviors and psycho-emotional manifestations in humans. Philosophy, therefore, has not been exempt from rethinking the way in which the human being is thought, either in its normative margins or in otherness. Immanuel Kant looked -within his important philosophical period- at these problems, but in a superficial way in a short essay entitled "Essay on diseases of the head" (1764) where he explored from his vision the problem of inverted reason. The proposal of the present investigation seeks to find the scope of this proposal by the philosopher Koninsberg and the biologist rereading that authors such as Konrad Lorenz and Franz Wuketits proposed as initiators of the Evolutionary Theory of Knowledge.
