Change in View: Principles of Reasoning
Gilbert Harman
(Author)
Description
Change in View offers an entirely original approach to the philosophical study of reasoning by identifying principles of reasoning with principles for revising one's beliefs and intentions and not with principles of logic. This crucial observation leads to a number of important and interesting consequences that impinge on psychology and artificial intelligence as well as on various branches of philosophy, from epistemology to ethics and action theory.Product Details

Reviews
- Martin Hollis, "Times Literary Supplement"

" Professor Harman has set new standards of clarity and insight for issues of reasoning and planning that are increasingly important in current artificial intelligence research. His point of view has great unifying power" - Jon Doyle, Carnegie-Mellon University
