Thinking and reasoning, long the academic province of philosophy,
have over the past century emerged as core topics of empirical
investigation and theoretical analysis in the modern fields of
cognitive psychology, cognitive science, and cognitive
neuroscience. Formerly seen as too complicated and amorphous to be
included in early textbooks on the science of cognition, the study
of thinking and reasoning has since taken off, brancing off in a
distinct direction from the field from which it originated.
The Oxford Handbook of Thinking and Reasoning is a comprehensive
and authoritative handbook covering all the core topics of the
field of thinking and reasoning. Written by the foremost experts
from cognitive psychology, cognitive science, and cognitive
neuroscience, individual chapters summarize basic concepts and
findings for a major topic, sketch its history, and give a sense of
the directions in which research is currently heading. Chapters
include introductions to foundational issues and methods of study
in the field, as well as treatment of specific types of thinking
and reasoning and their application in a broad range of fields
including business, education, law, medicine, music, and science.
The volume will be of interest to scholars and students working in
developmental, social and clinical psychology, philosophy,
economics, artificial intelligence, education, and linguistics.
