Timothy R. Colburn received his Ph.D. in philosophy from Brown University in 1979, and his M.S. in computer science from Michigan State University in 1981. He has worked as a philosophy professor, a computer programmer, and a research scientist in artificial intelligence. He is currently an associate professor of computer science at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. He can be reached via e-mail at tcolburn@d.umn.edu.
This volume provides a lucid and stimulating introduction to some of the most fascinating ideas explored in contemporary philosophy and science. It is about the philosophical foundations of artificial intelligence in particular and computer science in general, and the contributions that philosophy and computer science can make to each other. It asks where computer science fits as a science, how philosophy can guide computer science, and how work in computer science can shape one's philosophy.
The author, who is both a philosopher and a computer scientist, supplies a framework that is historical and analytical, explaining the philosophical origins of many problems that are raised by modern computing machines.
