The Routledge International Handbook of Thinking and Reasoning is
an authoritative reference work providing a balanced overview of
current scholarship spanning the full breadth of the rapidly
developing and expanding field of thinking and reasoning. It
contains 35 chapters written by leading international researchers,
covering foundational issues as well as state-of-the-art
developments in thinking and reasoning research. Topics covered
range across all sub-areas of thinking and reasoning, including
deduction, induction, abduction, judgment, decision making,
argumentation, problem solving, expertise, creativity and
rationality. The contributors engage with cutting-edge debates such
as the status of dual-process theories of thinking, the role of
unconscious, intuitive, emotional and metacognitive processes in
thinking, and the importance of probabilistic conceptualisations of
thinking and reasoning. Authors also examine the importance of
neuroscientific findings in informing theoretical developments, and
explore the situated nature of thinking and reasoning across a
range of real-world contexts such as mathematics, medicine and
science. The Handbook provides a clear sense of the way in which
contemporary ideas are challenging traditional viewpoints as "new
paradigm of the psychology of reasoning" emerges. This
paradigm-shifting research is paving the way toward a richer and
more inclusive understanding of thinking and reasoning, where
important new questions drive a forward-looking research agenda. It
is essential reading for both established researchers in the field
of thinking and reasoning as well as advanced students wishing to
learn more about both the historical foundations and latest
developments in this rapidly growing field.
