Description

Explore a radical re-conceptualization of human understanding with Rationality In An Uncertain World. Published by Routledge, this collection of influential papers challenges long-held views in the psychology of inference and cognitive science. For decades, much of cognitive science has operated on the implicit assumption that logic serves as the foundation for human thought. However, this book identifies a fundamental mismatch: while logic is a calculus of certain inference, almost all human reasoning occurs under conditions of uncertainty. Through the work of Oaksford and Chater, readers gain insight into why logic may not be the appropriate model for how people actually think. This text provides a necessary shift in perspective for students, researchers, and professionals interested in how the human mind processes information and navigates an unpredictable world.

Key Features

Challenges the traditional view that logic provides the primary basis for human inference and cognitive processes.

Analyzes the mismatch between certain logical calculus and the uncertain nature of real-world human reasoning.

Offers a collection of influential papers that argue for a new way to understand the psychology of inference.

Provides deep insights into the field of cognitive science and the mechanics of human understanding.

Developed by experts Oaksford and Chater to provide a new framework for studying how minds function.
