"This volume provides a cohesive and comprehensive case that cognitive neuroscience is maturing into an integrated, interdisciplinary science that is altering our understanding of the mind in profound ways. The rise of cognitive neuroscience has prompted a rethinking of levels, computation, representation, psychological explanation, and the relation between psychology and neuroscience. Despite these advances, many philosophers and scientists of the mind continue to write as though cognitive neuroscience didn't exist or, perhaps, they maintain that cognitive neuroscience has not advanced our understanding of the mind and psychology remains autonomous from neuroscience. The chapters in this volume showcase important ways in which cognitive neuroscience makes a difference to our understanding of the mind. The contributors address a wide range of topics including computation, representation, explanation, perception, executive function, emotion, language, motor control, and more. Together, they demonstrate the ways in which cognitive neuroscience supersedes traditional cognitive science and supports a unified, integrated, multilevel, mechanistic, neurocomputational account of the mind. Neurocognitive Foundations of Mind is essential reading for scholars and advanced students interested in the foundations of the sciences of the mind, both within the sciences and philosophy"-- Provided by publisher.
