Rationality and Logic

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hanna, Robert, PUBLISHER: MIT Press (MA), In "Rationality and Logic," Robert Hanna argues that logic is intrinsically psychological and that human ong>psychologyong> is intrinsically logical. He claims that logic is cognitively constructed by rational animals (including humans) and that rational animals are essentially logical animals. In order to do so, he defends ong>theong> broadly Kantian ong>theong>sis that all (and only) rational animals possess an innate cognitive "logic faculty." Hanna's claims challenge ong>theong> conventional philosophical wisdom that sees logic as a fully formal or "topic-neutral" science irreconcilably separate from ong>theong> species- or individual-specific focus ong>ofong> empirical ong>psychologyong>. Logic and ong>psychologyong> went ong>theong>ir separate ways after attacks by Frege and Husserl on logical psychologism--ong>theong> explanatory reduction ong>ofong> logic to empirical ong>psychologyong>. Hanna argues, however, that--despite ong>theong> fact that logical psychologism is false--ong>theong>re is an essential link between logic and ong>psychologyong>. Rational human animals constitute ong>theong> basic class ong>ofong> cognizers or thinkers studied by cognitive ong>psychologyong>; given ong>theong> connection between rationality and logic that Hanna claims, it follows that ong>theong> nature ong>ofong> logic is significantly revealed to us by cognitive ong>psychologyong>. Hanna's proposed "logical cognitivism" has two important consequences: ong>theong> recognition by logically oriented philosophers that psychologists are ong>theong>ir colleagues in ong>theong> metadiscipline ong>ofong> cognitive science; and radical changes in cognitive science itself. Cognitive science, Hanna argues, is not at bottom a natural science; it is both an objective or truth-oriented science and a normative human science, as is logic itself.
