Handbook of Categorization in Cognitive Science
Resources
Description
Key Features
- Defines notions of category and categorization
- Discusses the nature of categories: discrete, vague, or other
- Explores the modality effects on categories
- Bridges the category divide - calling attention to the bridges that have already been built, and avenues for further cross-fertilization between disciplines
Readership
Researchers and students in the cognitive sciences: psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, philosophy, computer science, and cognitive anthropology
