Overview
Cognitive science is the study of mental architecture, based on the fundamental assumption that cognition is information processing. In this book we are thinking of mental architectures in terms of three basic questions. Here they are again.
In what format does a particular cognitive system carry information?
How does that cognitive system transform information?
How is the mind organized so that it can function as an information processor?
In Part III we looked in detail at the two most important models of information processing – the physical symbol system hypothesis and the model associated with neurally inspired computing. We turn now to different ways of thinking about the third question.
