This series will include monographs and collections of studies
devoted to the investigation and exploration of knowledge,
information, and data-processing systems of all kinds, no matter
whether human. (other) animal, or machine. Its scope is intended to
span the full range of interests from classical problems in the
philosophy of mind and philosophical psychology through issues in
cognitive psychology and sociobiology (concerning the mental
capabilities of other species) to ideas related to artificial
intelligence and computer science. While primary emphasis will be
placed upon theoretical, conceptual, and epistemological aspects of
these problems and domains, empirical, experimental, and
methodological studies will also appear from time to time. No
problem within the field of cognitive inquiry is more difficult
than that of developing an adequate conception of the nature of
mind and of its mode of operation. Our purpose in compiling the
present volume has been to contribute to the pursuit of this
objective by bringing together a repre sentative cross-section of
the principal approaches and the primary players who are engaged in
contemporary debate on these crucial issues. The book begins with a
comprehensive introduction composed by David Cole, the senior
editor of this work, which provides a background for understanding
the major problems and alternative solutions, and ends with a
selected bibliography intended to promote further research. If our
efforts assist others in dealing with these issues, they will have
been worthwhile. J. H. F. David J. Cole et at. (eds. ), Philosophy,
Mind, and Cognitive Inquiry, ix."
