Dictionary of Cognitive Sciences: Neuroscience, Psychology, Artificial Intelligence, Linguistics, and Philosophy

This resource text for students, professors, and researchers represents the combined efforts of 60-some specialists from France, Switzerland, the U.S., and Belgium. The text clearly and concisely describes the key concepts of the five core disciplines of cognitive science, with enough detail to assist readers in their collaboration with colleagues in the other disciplines. The entries are usually encyclopedic, presenting multiple approaches and models, with cross-references to other relevant notions and entries. Each entry is broken down into as many of five sections, depending on the number of disciplines to which it is applicable. Translated into English by Vivian Waltz. Distributed by Taylor and Francis.
