Anderson, has been enormously influential in helping us understand high-level cognitive processes. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Probabilistic Mind\u003c\/em\u003e is a follow-up to the influential and highly cited 'Rational Models of Cognition' (OUP, 1998). It brings together developments in understanding how, and how far, high-level cognitive processes can be understood in rational terms, and particularly using probabilistic Bayesian methods. It synthesizes and evaluates the progress in the past decade, taking into account developments in Bayesian statistics, statistical analysis of the cognitive 'environment' and a variety of theoretical and experimental lines of research. The scope of the book is broad, covering important recent work in reasoning, decision making, categorization, and memory. Including chapters from many of the leading figures in this field, \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Probabilistic Mind\u003c\/em\u003e will be valuable for psychologists and philosophers interested in cognition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nick Chater\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0199216096\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199216093\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/02\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 534\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.08d","brand":"Nick Chater","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44054701080831,"sku":"9780199216093","price":98.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e4bcca5d-7420-4062-a7d7-04a41f932c44.jpg?v=1685031484","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-probabilistic-mind-nick-chater-9780199216093","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
