Representation in Cognitive Science
"Our thoughts are meaningful. We think about things in the outside world; how can that be so? This is one of the deepest questions in contemporary philosophy.

Everything Flows

My objective, as for the first edition (Turland, 2013), has been to create a text that is reasonably clear and simple, which inevitably means it will fail to cover every r…
