Seller's Description:
Very good. 419 p., bibliography, index. Since the late 1970s, cognition and artificial intelligence have been central and much debated themes in philosophical discussion. This collection of articles contributes to the discussion by taking into account both the tradition and some recent developments in the philosophy of science, meaning, mind and body. I seeks to bring together various philosophical approaches, such as analytic philosophy phenomenology and semiotics. The volume is divided into four sections according to the philosophical themes which are discussed in the articles. The first section touches upon the problems of meaning and signification, the second discusses naturalism and the nature of the philosophical enterprise, the third deals with the ind-body problem as well as the questions of personhood and human action, and the fourth section studies the relations between common-sense, folk psychology and physics. The collection is primarily meant for philosophers, cognitive scientists and psychologists, but it may also interest scholars who work on such fields as linguistics, computer science and communication studies.
