Continuing a series of published and planned volumes that began in 1991, Wagman (psychology, U. of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign) develops intellectual grounding for establishing theoretical and research foundations of a general unified theory of human and artificial intelligence and of its psychological and philosophical implications. His topics include cognitive science and the nature of language, analogical retrieval and mapping, and the capacity theory of language comprehension. Professionals, scholars, graduates, and advanced undergraduates concerned with psychology, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science might find the treatment interesting.
