Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveränderung. Human thinking is one of the most complex phenomena evolved to date, with a wide range of definitions. Some encompass nearly all cognitive processes, while others restrict it to language-based or formal reasoning. We adopt a "medium-sized" definition, viewing thinking as all operations through which cognitive agents connect mental content to gain new insights. Mental content serves as both a prerequisite and substrate for thinking operations. The largely unconscious processes of perceptual object stabilization, categorization, emotional evaluation, and memory retrieval generate this mental content, making them essential for thinking. In distinguishing terms, "thinking" is narrower than "cognition" but broader than "reasoning." Thus, thinking is a subset of cognitive processes, while reasoning is a subset of thinking. This definition also includes nonexplicit, intuitive, and associative processes of linking mental content. Importantly, thinking is not dependent on language; many animals, particularly mammals, exhibit early forms of thinking.…

Innocenti; Models as Tools to Aid Thinking / Helge Ritter; Index -- "What is Thinking? Trying to Define an Equally Fascinating and Elusive Phenomenon Human thinking is probably the most complex phenomenon that evolution has come up with until now. There exists a broad spectrum of definitions, from subsuming almost all processes of cognition to limiting it to language-based, sometimes even only to formalizable reasoning processes. We work with a "medium sized" definition according to which thinking encompasses all operations by which cognitive agents link mental content in order to gain new insights or perspectives. Mental content is, thus, a prerequisite for and the substrate on which thinking operations are executed. The largely unconscious acts of perceptual object stabilization, categorization, emotional evaluation - and retrieving all the above from memory inscriptions - are the processes by which mental content is generated, and are, therefore, seen as prerequisites for thinking operations. In terms of a differentia specifica, the notion of "thinking" is seen as narrower than the notion of "cognition" and as wider than the notion of "reasoning". Thinking is, thus, seen as a subset of cognition processes; and reasoning processes are seen as a subset of thinking. Besides reasoning, the notion of thinking includes also nonexplicit, intuitive, and associative processes of linking mental content. According to this definition, thinking is not dependant on language, i.e. also many animals and certainly all mammals show early forms of thinking.". …
