"Mind Readings" is a collection of accessible readings on some
of the most important topics in cognitive science. Although anyone
interested in the interdisciplinary study of mind will find the
selections well worth reading, they work particularly well with
Paul Thagard's textbook "Mind: An Introduction Cognitive Science,"
and provide further discussion on the major topics discussed in
that book. The first eight chapters present approaches to cognitive
science from the perspective that thinking consists of
computational procedures on mental representations. The remaining
five chapters discuss challenges to the
computational-representational understanding of mind.
