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 psycholo gy through issues in
cognitive psychology and sociobiology (concerning the mental
capabilities of other species) to ideas related to artificial in
telligence and to computer science. While primary emphasis will be
placed upon theoretical, conceptual, and epistemological aspects of
these prob lems and domains, empirical, experimental, and
methodological studies will also appear from time to time. The
perspective that prevails in artificial intelligence today suggests
that the theory of computability defines the boundaries of the
nature of thought, precisely because all thinking is computational.
This paradigm draws its inspiration from the symbol-system
hypothesis of Newell and Simon and finds its culmination in the
computational conception of lan guage and mentality. The "standard
conception" represented by these views is subjected to a thorough
and sustained critique in the pages of this book. Employing a
distinction between systems for which signs are signif icant for
the users of a system and others for which signs are significant
for use by a system, I have sought to define the boundaries of what
AI, in principle, may be expected to achieve."
