José Hernandez-Conde: Reply to Gärdenfors.This edited book focuses on concepts and their applications using the theory of conceptual spaces, one of today’s most central tracks of cognitive science discourse. It features 15 papers based on topics presented at the Conceptual Spaces @ Work 2016 conference. The contributors interweave both theory and applications in their papers. Among the first mentioned are studies on metatheories, logical and systemic implications of the theory, as well as relations between concepts and language. Examples of the latter include explanatory models of paradigm shifts and evolution in science as well as dilemmas and issues of health, ethics, and education. The theory of conceptual spaces overcomes many translational issues between academic theoretization and practical applications. The paradigm is mainly associated with structural explanations, such as categorization and meronomy. However, the community has also been relating it to relations, functions, and systems. The book presents work that provides a geometric model for the representation of human conceptual knowledge that bridges the symbolic and the sub-conceptual levels of representation. The model has already proven to have a broad range of applicability beyond cognitive science and even across a number of disciplines related to concepts and representation.Synthese Library, Studies in Epistemology, Logic, Methodology, and Philosophy of Science,0166-6991 ;405Philosophy of mindLogic designMathematical logicLogicPhilosophy of Mindhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E31000Logic Designhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I12050Mathematical Logic and Foundationshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M24005Logichttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E16000Mathematical Logic and Formal Languageshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I16048Philosophy of mind.Logic design.Mathematical logic.Logic.Philosophy of Mind.Logic Design.Mathematical Logic and Foundations.Logic.Mathematical Logic and Formal Languages.128.2128.2Kaipainen Mauriedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtZenker Frankedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHautamäki Anttiedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGärdenfors Peteredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910337686803321Conceptual Spaces: Elaborations and Applications2179891UNINA
