THE PLACE OF PHILOSOPHY IN COGNITIVE SCIENCE During the last few
years, many books have been published and many meetings have been
held on Cognitive Science. A cursory review of their contents shows
such a diversity of topics and approaches that one might well infer
that there are no genuine criteria for classifying a paper or a
lecture as a contribution to Cognitive Science. It is as though the
only criterion is to have appeared in a book or in the programme of
a meeting or title we can find the expression " . . . Cognitive
Science" in whose name or something like that. Perhaps this
situation is due to the (relative) youth of the field, which is
seeking its own identity, still involved in a process of formation
and consolidation within the scientific community; but there are
actually deep disagreements about how a science of the mind should
be worked out, including how to understand its own subject, that
is, "the mind. "While for some the term makes reference to a set of
phenomena impossible to grasp by any scientific approach, for
others "the mind" would be a sort of myth, and the mental terms
await elimination by other more handy and empirically tractable
terms.
