Description and Table of Contents

Description

In recent years, leading cognitive psychologists have painted a detailed, controversial, and highly critical portrait of commonsense reasoning. Stephen Stich undertakes a spirited defense of this work and puts forth a critique of those writers who argue that widespread irrationality is a biological or conceptual impossibility.
