This book is a selection from the articles that I have written over
a period of more than twenty years. Since the focus of my research
interests has shifted several times during this period, it would be
difficult to identify a common theme for all the papers in the
volume. Following the Swedish tradition, I therefore present this
as a smorgasbord of philosophical and cognitive issues that I have
worked on. To create some order, I have organized the sixteen
papers into five general sections: (1) Decision theory; (2) belief
revision and nonmonotonic logic; (3) induction; (4) semantics and
pragmatics; and (5) cognition and evolution. Having said this, I
still think that there is a common theme to my work over the years:
The dynamics of thought. My academic interests have all the time
dealt with aspects of how different kinds of knowledge should be
represented, and, in particular, how changes in knowledge will
affect thinking. Hence the title of the book."
