Summary

Following the introductory chapter, each succeeding chapter focuses on a major component of cognition. Each cognitive component (logic, reasoning, problem solving, language, memory, learning, discovery) is analyzed from the perspectives of human intellect and artificial intelligence. The dual perspectives are then compared. The analyses and the comparisons take account of basic theory and describe contemporary research. The technical theory and research is considered against a broad background of intellectual history and psychological implication. This book is intended for anyone aware of the new intellectual paradigm and psychological challenge of artificial intelligence. It is written for the general reader, as well as for university students in cognitive science programs, artificial intelligence, psychology, and philosophy courses, and for professionals in these and related fields. --from preface.
