DE ALMEIDA, R. G. G., On Concepts, Modules, and Language. Cognitive Science at Its Core. Oxford University Press, 2017. 328p. Hardback. The main topics (Language of thought; Modularity) represent two of the most important in the field, with Fodor delivering the deepest and most probing analyses of the problems. Fodor's views, and indeed, the general issues of language and mind, and of modularity, remain fundamental to all of cognitive science, and to the fields that intersect with it-psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, computer science, philosophy, etc. The topics also have historically invited controversy from great thinkers, including many of the writers represented in the volume, which is likely to contribute to an on-going exciting dialogue within the field. The book will be widely read, not only by the student population . . . but also by senior scientists in the field. . . . [T]he volume represents a very serious and significant contribution to the field.-Barbara Landau, PhD, Dick and Lydia Todd Professor and Director, Science of Learning Institute, Department of Cognitive Science, Johns Hopkins Univers (Publisher's information). € 89.68 (New) (approx. delivery time: 14 days) ISBN: 9780190464783
