The Routledge Handbook of the Computational Mind

An outstanding collection omprising thirty-five chapters by an international team of contributors from different disciplines. Essential reading for students and researchers in philosophy of mind, philosophy of psychology, and philosophy of science, and also of interest to those studying computational models in related subjects such as psychology, neuroscience, and computer science.
