In the context of an Emory Symposium on Cognition honoring the
enormous contributions to cognitive psychology of Ulric Neisser,
this book brings together ecological approaches to various aspects
of cognition and its development. Well-known former students and
colleagues of Neisser articulate their views on perception, memory,
and culture. There is a strong developmental component, with
chapters on infant perception, infant problem solving, and the
cognitive profile of Williams Syndrome, as well as two chapters
that consider philosophical issues related to cognitive psychology.

Cognitive Science represents the convergence of workers in diverse
disciplines- artificial intelligence, cognitive psychology - in a
unified effort to understand human mental life. This book, first
published in 1988, is a collection of essays about the development
of cognitive science by colleagues of George A. Miller, a central
figure whose own intellectual history is to a large extent a
history of the field. The distinguished contributors take the story
from work on formalism in psychology in the late 1950s to the
organization of the Center for Cognitive Studies at Harvard, where
many first-generation cognitive psychologists were trained, to the
expanding interdisciplinary enterprises of first psycholinguistics
and then the cognitive neuroscience, and finally to the
institutionalization of cognitive science within universities.
Together, they essays constitute a fascinating and readable
personal account of the way in which an exciting new science has
come into being. The Making of Cognitive Science will be welcomed
by a broad audience in the cognitive science community, as well as
by historians of psychology.
