This approach uses computational ideas to shed light on how scientific theories are discovered, evaluated, and used in explanations. Thagard describes a detailed computational model of problem solving and discovery that provides a conceptually rich yet rigorous alternative to accounts of scientific knowledge based on formal logic, and he uses it to illuminate such topics as the nature of concepts, hypothesis formation, analogy, and theory justification. 001386410 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001386410 650_0 $$aScience$$xPhilosophy. 001386410 650_0 $$aPsychology. 001386410 650_0 $$aArtificial intelligence. 001386410 653__ $$aCOGNITIVE SCIENCES/General 001386410 653__ $$aPHILOSOPHY/Philosophy of Science & Technology 001386410 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001386410 852__ $$bebk 001386410 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/1968.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001386410 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001386410 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1386410$$pGLOBAL_SET 001386410 980__ $$aBIB 001386410 980__ $$aEBOOK 001386410 982__ $$aEbook 001386410 983__ $$aOnline
