The Search for Mind: A New Foundation for Cognitive Science (Ablex Series in Computational Sciences)

The disciplines that traditionally comprise cognitive science are artificial intelligence, linguistics, philosophy (including epistemology and philosophy of mind), and cognitive psychology. The boundary disciplines are neuroscience, ethnoscience, and ethology. This volume begins with an account of all these disciplines where they relate to cognition, with an indication of the direction of the most important current lines of research. From these antecedents, it moves toward a theory of cognition that has psychological and computational consequences. Paper edition (139-7), $42.50. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
