Cognitive Science

Paul Thagard, the author of this extensively revised encyclopedia article, is an authority in this field in his own right (he's another one of the people I studied during my PhD studies). This article is especially useful for people new to the field because of its breakdown, in section four, of nine 'theoretical approaches' to cognitive science. I appreciate this because it's a much wider conception of cognitive science than is usually the case. Many of the issues discussed in the pages of OLDaily also show up in the applications section. This is a crisp, clear, short and quite useful introduction to the subject. Image: Wikipedia.
