Description:
This text constitutes a new approach to philosophy, the philosophy of mind and the problems of artificial intelligence. Bryant analyzes such hitherto unidentified phenomena as positive pleasure, the trademark paradox and the paradox of value.
Synopsis:
Systems Theory and Scientific Philosophy constitutes a totally new approach to philosophy, the philosophy of mind and the problems of artificial intelligence, and is based upon the pioneering work in cybernetics of W. Ross Ashby. While science is humanity's attempt to know how the world works and philosophy its attempt to know why, scientific philosophy is the application of scientific techniques to questions of philosophy.
