Book Description: Oxford University Press, United Kingdom, 1998. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 234 x 156 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. The General Editors are: Martin Davies, Wilde Reader in Mental Philosophy, University of Oxford, UK; James Higginbotham, Professor of General Linguistics, University of Oxford, UK; John O'Keefe, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience, University College, London, UK; Christopher Peacocke, Waynflete Professor of Metaphysical Philosophy, University of Oxford, UK; and Kim Plunkett, University Lecturer in Psychology, University of Oxford, UK. "The Oxford Cognitive Science" series is a forum for the best contemporary work in this flourishing field, where various disciplines - cognitive psychology, philosophy, linguistics, cognitive neuroscience, and computational theory - join forces in the investigation of thought, awareness, understanding, and associated workings of the mind. Each book will represent an original contribution to its subject, but will be accessible beyond the ranks of specialists, so as to reach a broad interdisciplinary readership. The series will be carefully shaped and steered by the general editors, with the aim of representing the most important developments in the field and bringing together its constituent disciplines.About this book: The renowned philosopher Jerry Fodor, who has been a leading figure in the study of the mind for more than twenty years, presents a strikingly original theory of the basic constituents of thought. He suggests that the heart of a cognitive science is its theory of concepts, and that cognitive scientists have gone badly wrong in many areas because their assumptions about concepts have been seriously mistaken. Fodor argues compellingly for an atomistic theory of concepts, deals out witty and pugnacious demolitions of the rival theories that have prevailed in recent years, and suggests that future work on human cognition should build upon new foundations. This lively, conversational, and surprisingly accessible book is the first volume in the "Oxford Cognitive Science" series, where the best original work in this field will be presented to a broad readership. Concepts will fascinate anyone interested in contemporary work on mind and language. Cognitive science will never be the same again. Bookseller Inventory # AAZ9780198236368
