The Transfer of Cognitive Skill

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Singley, Mark K. / Anderson, John R., PUBLISHER: Harvard University Press, Does a knowledge of Latin facilitate he learning of computer programming? Does skill in geometry make it easier to learn music? The issue of the transfer of learning from one domain to another is a classic problem in psychology as well as an educational question of great importance, which this ingenious new book sets out to solve through a theory of transfer based on a comprehensive theory of skill acquisition. The question was first studies systematically at the turn of the century by the noted psychologist Edward L. Thorndike, who proposed a theory of transfer based on common elements in two different tasks. Since then, psychologists of different theoretical orientations--verbal learning, gestalt, and information processing--have addressed the transfer question with differing and inconclusive results. Singley and Anderson resurrect Thorndike's theory of identical elements, but in a broader context and from the perspective of cognitive psychology. Making use o a powerful knowledge-representation language, they recast his elements into units of procedural and declarative knowledge in the ACT* theory of skill acquisition. One skill will transfer to another, they argue, to the extent that it involves the same productions or the same declarative precursors. They show that with production rules, ransfer can be localized to specific components--in keeping with Thorndike's theory--and yet still be abstract and mentalistic. The findings of this book have important implications for psychology and the improvement of teaching. They will interest cognitive scientists and educational psychologists, as well as computer scientists interested in artificial intelligence and cognitive modeling.

Dead Man Docking

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Daheim, Mary, PUBLISHER: William Morrow & Company, Nobody does it like Daheim -- the USA Today bestselling "Reigning Queen of the Cozies" (Portland Oregonian) whose delightfully zany Bed-and-Breakfast mysteries set the genre's gold standard. Now get ready to cruise along with the incomparable Judith and Renie as a well-earned vacation is beached by mystery, mayhem, and hilarious homicide. Dead Man Docking Who in her right mind would turn down a free cruise to the idyllic isles of the South Pacific aboard an ultra-luxurious luxury liner? Certainly not Judith McMonigle Flynn -- which is why she and her closer-than-a-sibling cousin Renie Jones are leaving behind the stress of Hillside Manor B&B and hightailing it down to the San Francisco Bay to board the magnificent San Rafael, the pride of the Cruz Cruises fleet. The cousins sail into the pre-launch party on a wave of happy enthusiasm... which, unfortunately, is about as far out to sea as they will get. The problem is the piano -- or rather, the corpse stuffed in the piano: the body of their awol host, Cruz Cruises CEO Magglio Cruz. So the boat trip is postponed, leaving Judith and Renie footloose in Frisco -- except for the fact that they're both murder suspects -- and free to gad about with the other marooned, disappointed landlubbers, including one who is a homicidal loose cannon. Among the almost-shipmates, the cousins are inevitably drawn to Rick and Rhoda St. George -- a picture-perfect team of glamorous, martini-quaffing, would-be crime-solvers. And since no one has anything better to do, they all decide to work together to solve the crime. When other stranded San Rafael-ites inexplicably begin turning up dead all over the City by the Bay, Judith, Renie, and theSt. Georges realize that if they're not careful, they, too, may end up leaving not only their hearts in San Francisco but the rest of their mortal remains as well

Archaeology, Language, and History: Essays on Culture and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Terrell, John Edward, PUBLISHER: Praeger, Ever since Darwin, the world has been struggling with the mystery of human diversity. As the historian Peter Bowler has written, "an evolutionary interpretation of the history of life on the earth must inevitably extend itself to include the origins of the human race." But this has proved to be a difficult and controversial task. Understanding human origins means accounting not only for the obvious differences between people and cultures around the world, but also for the unity of Homo sapiens as a single biological species. As Stephen Jay Gould has said, "flexibility is the hallmark of human evolution." Because so much of who we are is learned rather than genetically predetermined, a satisfactory understanding of human evolution--to use old parlance--must account both for the human body and the human soul. At any single moment of time, it is always possible to find instances where people seem to live in their own world, speak in their own distinctive ways, and have their own exclusive cultural traits and practices. Over the course of time, however, it is not so easy to find places where these dimensions of our diversity stay together. The essays in this collection show why we must stop thinking that "race," language, and culture go together, and why we should be wary of the commonsense beliefs that human races exist and that people who speak different languages come from fundamentally different biological lineages.

Applying Scientific Reasoning to the Field of Marketing:

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Grapentine, Terry, PUBLISHER: Business Expert Press, Marketing decisions often misfire when driven more by beliefs than knowledge. Make Better Marketing Decisions: Lessons from the Philosophy of Science, guides readers on how to think more clearly and correctly when making these decisions, thereby increasing organizational success. The book is based on the field of epistemology--the study of how knowledge is created--within the philosophy of science. Epistemology is a difficult subject with its own vocabulary and concepts that are often esoteric and considered too academic for marketing decision makers and researchers to apply. Consequently, the first sections of the book disabuse this notion by explaining why incorporating a scientific way of viewing the world and the scientific method is actually a practical way to make better decisions. These introductory chapters transition into a more formal discussion of philosophy of science, epistemology, and why marketing is a social science as opposed to merely an art or a practice, like medicine or engineering. The main body of the book then guides the reader through selected lessons from the philosophy of science to improve decision making. Example topics are (1) applying scientific reasoning to decision making, (2) differentiating between symptoms vs. causes of consumer behavior, and (3) understanding the importance of theory development in translating information into understanding. The book concludes by identifying the necessary conditions for applying philosophy of science's lessons to decision making and how to strike the proper balance between (1) allocating resources for knowledge creation, and (2) managing the day-to-day realities of running a business.

Permissible Killing

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Uniacke, Suzanne, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, Do individuals have a positive right of self-defense? And if so, what are the limits of this right?

These are some of the issues explored by Dr. Uniacke in this comprehensive philosophical discussion of the principles relevant to self-defense as a moral and legal justification for homicide. This is a lucid and sophisticated account of the complex notion of justification, revolving around a critical discussion of recent trends in the law of self-defense.
