Humans constantly search for and use information to solve a wide
range of problems related to survival, social interactions, and
learning. While it is clear that curiosity and the drive for
knowledge occupies a central role in defining what being human
means to ourselves, where does this desire to know the unknown come
from? What is its purpose? And how does it operate? These are some
of the core questions this book seeks to answer by showcasing new
and exciting research on human information-seeking. The volume
brings together perspectives from leading researchers at the
cutting edge of the cognitive sciences, working on human brains and
behavior within psychology, computer science, and neuroscience.
These vital connections between disciplines will continue to lead
to further breakthroughs in our understanding of human cognition.
