Knowledge, Concepts and Categories brings together an overview of
recent research on concepts and knowledge that abstracts across a
variety of specific fields of cognitive psychology. Readers will
find data from many different areas: developmental psychology,
formal modelling, neuropsychology, connectionism, philosophy, and
so on. The book can be divided into three parts. Chapters 1 to 5
each contain a thorough and systematic review of a significant
aspect of research on concepts and categories. Chapters 6 to 9 are
concerned primarily with issues related to the taxonomy of human
knowledge. Finally, Chapters 10 to 12 discuss formal models of
categorization and function learning. The purpose of these three
chapters is to provide a few examples of current formal modelling
of conceptual behaviour. Knowledge, Concepts and Categories will be
welcomed by students and researchers in cognitive psychology and
related areas as an unusually wide-ranging and authoritative review
of an important subfield of psychology.
