In the World Library of Psychologists series, international experts
themselves present career-long collections of what they judge to be
their finest pieces - extracts from books, key articles, salient
research findings, and their major theoretical and practical
contributions. Jonathan St B T Evans is amongst the foremost
cognitive psychologists of his generation, having been influential
in spearheading developments in the psychological study of
reasoning from its very beginnings in the 1970s up to the present
day. This volume of self-selected papers recognises Professor
Evan's major contribution to the psychological study of thinking
and reasoning by bringing together his most influential and
important works. Early selections in the book focus upon
experimental studies of reasoning - matching bias in the Wason
selection task, belief bias in syllogistic reasoning, and also
seminal work on the understanding of conditional statements. The
later selections include Evans' work on more general forms of dual
process and dual system theory, and his recent account of two minds
in one brain. The volume also contains chapters which highlight
Evans' contribution to the topic of human rationality, and also his
influence on the development of the "new paradigm" in the
psychology of reasoning. The key developments in the psychology of
reasoning are paralleled by those in Evans's own intellectual
history, and the book will therefore make essential reading for all
researchers in the psychology of reasoning, and a wider audience of
graduate and upper-level undergraduate students with an interest in
reasoning and/or dual process theory.
