Modelling the Mind
Angebote / Angebote:
This collection by a distinguished group of philosophers, psychologists, and physiologists reflects an interdisciplinary approach to the central question of cognitive science: how do we model the mind? Among the topics explored are the relationships (theoretical, reductive, and explanatory)between philosophy, psychology, computer science, and physiology, what should be asked of models in science generally, and in cognitive science in particular, whether theoretical models must make essential reference to objects in the environment, whether there are human competences that areresistant, in principle, to modelling, whether simulated thinking and intentionality are really thinking and intentionality, how semantics can be generated from syntactics, the meaning of the terms "representations" and "modelling, " whether the nature of the "hardware" matters, and whether computermodels of humans are "dehumanizing." Contributors include Donald Davidson, Daniel C. Dennett, Margaret A. Boden, Adam Morton, Dennis Noble, T. Poggio, Colin Blakemore, K.V. Wilkes, P.N. Johnson-Laird, and Jonathan St. B.T. Evans.
