The fourth volume of Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science
consists mainly of papers which were contributed to our Colloquium
during the past few years. The volume represents a wide range of
interests in contem porary philosophy of science: issues in the
philosophy of mind and of language, the neurophysiology of
perceptual and linguistic behavior, philosophy of history and of
the social sciences, and studies in the fun damental categories and
methods of philosophy and the inter-relation ships of the sciences
with ethics and metaphysics. Papers on the logic and methods of the
natural sciences, including biological, physical and mathematical
topics appear in the fifth volume of our series. We have included
in the present volume the first English translation of the classic
and fundamental work on aphasia by Carl Wernicke, together with a
lucid and appreciative guide to his work by Dr. Norman Geschwind.
The papers were not written to form a coherent volume, nor have
they been edited with such a purpose. They represent current
work-in progress, both in the United States and in Europe. Although
most of the authors are philosophers, it is worth noting that we
have essays of philosophical significance here written by a
sociologist, an anthropologist, a political scientist, and by three
neurophysiologists. We hope that collaboration among working
scientists and working philosophers may develop further."
