Reviews
Passionately argued and inspirational.... Churchland's book spans severalseldom-bridged topics in epistemology, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of science, and does sowith wit and intelligence from its provocative neurocomputational perspective., "Paul Churchland continues, quite successfully, his bit to persuade the reader that the classical conception of the workings of the brain should be substituted by a construal of the brain as a dynamic neural network....If a book's success is judged both by the scope of its material and by the amount of novelty it brings, then Churchland's book is an unqualified success." -- Metascience, "Passionately argued and inspirational....Churchland's book spans several seldom-bridged topics in epistemology, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of science, and does so with wit and intelligence from its provocative neurocomputational perspective." -- Minds & Machines, Readers already somewhat familiar with... and intrigued by his quest to constraincomputational modeling of the brain based on knowledge of its structural, kinematical, and dynamicalproperties will find much to relish in this rigorous work.... Churchland's prose is direct, conciseand clear.... [an] impressive and provocative account., Paul Churchland continues, quite successfully, his bit to persuade the reader thatthe classical conception of the workings of the brain should be substituted by a construal of thebrain as a dynamic neural network.... If a book's success is judged both by the scope of itsmaterial and by the amount of novelty it brings, then Churchland's book is an unqualifiedsuccess.
