This analysis lays the foundations for understanding what it means to be a cognitive scientist. The book characterizes the basic assumptions that define the cognitive science approach and systematically sorts out recent issues and the controversies surrounding them.This text takes issue with those who argue that there is no agreed-upon research paradigm and no agreed-upon set of assumptions or methods in cognitive science, and with those who believe that the field should not be so committed. It argues that there is a framework of shared commitments that includes basic questions guiding research, substantive assumptions constraining how those questions are to be answered and methodological assumptions about how to find those answers. |
