Cognitive science is a field that began with the realization that
researchers in varied disciplines-psychology, artificial
intelligence, linguistics, philosophy, formal semantics,
neuroscience, and others-had taken on a common set of problems in
representation and meaning, in reasoning and language.
Nevertheless, cognitive science as a whole enjoys no common
methodology or theoretical framework, and is in danger of becoming
even more fragmented with time. There are two reasons for this.
First, cognitive science is built on existing methodologies that
have different historical origins. AB a result, the psychologist's
truth is different from the linguist's truth. The artificial
intelligence researcher's truth is different from the philosopher's
truth. The neuroscientist's truth is different from the formal
semanticist's truth. All too often there is little or no
recognition of the relevance of work in other disciplines to one's
own concerns. Second, cognitive scientists tend to develop theories
around isolated problems. For instance, there are theories about
how humans categorize concepts, about how humans analyze linguistic
expressions syntactically, about how the English tense system works
semantically, about how humans reason about space or reason about
time, about how goal-directed problem solving occurs, about how the
brain computes, and so on.
