In a compelling defense of the speculative approach to the
philosophy of mind, Jerry Fodor argues that, while our best current
theories of cognitive psychology view many higher processes as
computational, computation itself presupposes an internal medium of
representation. Fodor's prime concerns are to buttress the notion
of internal representation from a philosophical viewpoint, and to
determine those characteristics of this conceptual construct using
the empirical data available from linguistics and cognitive
psychology.
