Sinopsis
Cognitive science brings together psychology, computing, linguistics, anthropology, artificial intelligence, neurophysiology and philosophy. This book addresses the central questions of cognitive science: how does the mind work, and what is it that enables us to have thoughts, or feelings? The book shows that the mind depends on a brain in th same way that the execution of a programme depends on a computer. It describes its origins, and outlines what it has achieved.

De la contraportada
HOW DOES THE MIND WORK? What enables us to have thoughts and feelings, to decide what to do and how to act? In this acclaimed introduction to cognitive science, now revised and updated, Philip Johnson-Laird explains this fast growing field, describes its origins and outlines the results it has achieved. He takes nothing for granted and demands no previous knowledge.
THE COMPUTER AND THE MIND provides the background necessary to understand the construction of computer models and ranges widely over the human mind, examining central themes such as perception, imagination, emotion and free-will.
"This is a unique work, the first of its kind, and the reader must be grateful, not only for its breadth and almost invariable clarity, but also for its civilised tone, jokes and sly asides. It deserves to be widely read."
NEVILLE AUSTEN, 'British Journal of Psychology'
"An elegant account of how modern computing is throwing new light on our own complex thinking 'machines'."
OBSERVER SCIENCE BOOKS OF THE YEAR
"An admirably well-balanced introduction to contemporary thinking about people's mental and physical capacities."
CHRISTOPHER LONGUET-HIGGINS, 'London Review of Books'
"He writes on cognitive science with enviable clarity and wit, and with a breadth of vision that allows him to use music, art and literature in a natural way to make his point."
L. HENRY SHAFFER, 'Nature'

Paperback. Condición: Good. 464 pages. cover wornIn a field choked with seemingly impenetrable jargon, Philip N. Johnson-Laird has done the impossible: written a book about how the mind works that requires no advance knowledge of artificial intelligence, neurophysiology, or psychology. The mind, he says, depends on the brain in the same way as the execution of a p rogram of symbolic instructions depends on a computer, and can thus be understoo d by anyone willing to start with basic principles of computation and follow his step-by-step explanations.The author begins with a brief account of the history of psychology and the birth of cognitive science after World War II. He then describes clearly and simply the nature of symbols and the theory of comput ation, and follows with sections devoted to current computational models of how the mind carries out all its major tasks, including visual perception, learning, memory, the planning and control of actions, deductive and inductive reasoning, and the formation of new concepts and new ideas. Other sections discuss human c ommunication, meaning, the progress that has been made in enabling computers to understand natural language, and finally the difficult problems of the conscious and unconscious mind, free will, needs and emotions, and self-awareness. In an envoi, the author responds to the critics of cognitive science and defends the c omputational view of the mind as an alternative to traditional dualism: cognitiv e science integrates mind and matter within the same explanatory framework.This first single-authored introduction to cognitive science will command the attention of students of cognitive science at all levels including psychologists , linguists, computer scientists, philosophers, and neuroscientists--as well as.
