Quote by James J. Gibson
I also assume that they are not simply the physical properties of things as now conceived by physical science. Instead, they are ecological, in the sense that they are properties of the environment relative to an animal.
Summary
This quote suggests that the properties of things, as understood by physical science, are not sufficient to explain their full nature. Instead, the properties should be seen as ecological, meaning they are dependent on the environment from the perspective of an animal. In other words, the understanding of the properties of things should take into account how they interact with and are perceived by living organisms in their specific habitats, rather than solely focusing on their purely physical characteristics.
