The modern study of cognition finds itself with two widely endorsed
but seemingly incongruous theoretical paradigms. The first of
these, inspired by formal logic and the digital computer, sees
reasoning in the principled manipulation of structured symbolic
representations. The second, inspired by the physiology of the
brain, sees reasoning as the behavior that emerges from the direct
interactions found in large networks of simple processing
components. Each paradigm has its own accomplishments, problems,
methodology, proponents, and agenda.
This book records the thoughts of researchers -- from both
computer science and philosophy -- on resolving the debate between
the symbolic and connectionist paradigms. It addresses theoretical
and methodological issues throughout, but at the same time exhibits
the current attempts of practicing cognitive scientists to solve
real problems.
