More on this (the philosophical, phenomenological perspective) I would certainly recommend "
The Embodied Mind: Cognitive Science and Human Experience",
Eleanor Rosch, Evan Thompson y Francisco Varela, 1991
by the Chilean philosopher and cognitive scientist Francisco Varela. It is also a work that tries in a way to mediate between the Oriental philosophical vision (also quoted by Ken Friedman in his email) and Western cognitivism. Merleau-Ponty was the main Western source of inspiration for Varela.
And of course, Lakoff and Johnson's "Metaphors We Live By", capital text on the relevance of embodied metaphors in our processing of everyday's knowledge.

my understanding on embodiment come from phenomenological inquiry, especially from Merleau-Ponty.

What is EMBODIMENT and what is not?
Sorry to ask this question. I am totally confused as I find this term
is being used in many different ways.
Thanks
