Book Review: Linear turning point theory

A turning point in mathematical learning theory.

This target article by Estes (1950) sparked the mathematical learning theory movement, which took seriously the goal of predicting quantitative details of behavioral data from standard learning experiments. The central constructs of Estes's theory were stimulus variability, stimulus sampling, and stimulus-response association by contiguity, all cast within a framework enabling predictions of re...

Book Review: Contemporary Sensorimotor Theory

Consciousness, with its irreducible subjective character, was almost exclusively a philosophical topic until relatively recently. Today, however, the problem of explaining the felt quality of experience has also become relevant to science and engineering, including robotics andAI: “What would we have to build into a robot so that it really felt the touch of a finger, the redness of red, or the ...

BOOK REVIEW Bohmian Mechanics and Quantum Theory

This collection Bohmian Mechanics and Quantum Theory gives us the broadest perspective yet on this important realist alternative to standard quantum theory. The book treats the history, philosophical rami"cations and consistency of theories arising from Bohm's original model and their relations to other alternative theories. Signi"cantly, it also contains applications of these theories to pract...
