| Description: |
This work examines how cognitive science approaches consciousness. It suggests that there is a need for two sciences in this area, arguing that through the creation of a science of consciousness encompassing subjectivity, cognitive science can become an experimental epistemology. |
| Synopsis: |
The Reaching for Mind workshop, held at AISB '95, explicitly addressed itself to the current crisis in Cognitive Science. In particular, the issue of how this discipline can address consciousness was a leitmotiv in the workshop. The conclusion seems inescapable that there is a need for two sciences in this area. Cognitive Science can be freed to become a fully-fledged experimental epistemology by the creation of a science of consciousness also encompassing subjectivity. This exciting collection of papers indicates where both these sciences may be heading. (Series B) The programme committee of the workshop included: Mike Brady (Oxford); Daniel Dennett (Tufts); Jerry Feldman (Berkeley); John Macnamara (McGill) and Zenon Pylyshyn (Rutgers). |
