It focuses on a central issue in both fields, i.e. the nature and the limitations of the rationality of beliefs and action. The development of cognitive science is one of the most important and fascinating intellectual advances of recent decades, and social scientists are paying increasing attention to the findings of this new branch of science that forces us to consider many classical issues related to epistemology and philosophy of action in a new light. Analysis of the concept of rationality is a leitmotiv in the history of the social sciences and has involved endless disputes. Since it is difficult to give a precise definition of this concept, and there is a lack of agreement about its meaning, it is possible to say that there is a ?mystery of rationality?. What is it to be rational? Is rationality merely instrumental or does it also involve the endorsement of values, i.e. the choice of goals? Should we consider rationality to be a normative principle or a descriptive one? Can rationality be only Cartesian or can it also be argumentative? Is rationality a conscious skill or a partly tacit one? This book, which has been written by an outstanding collection of authors, including both philosophers and social scientists, tries to make a useful contribution to the debates on these problems and shed some light on the mystery of rationality. The target audience primarily comprises researchers and experts in the field. 606 $aPhilosophy of mind 606 $aCognitive psychology 606 $aIndustrial psychology 606 $aNeural networks (Computer science)  606 $aSociology 606 $aPhilosophy of Mind$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E31000 606 $aCognitive Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20060 606 $aIndustrial and Organizational Psychology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20030 606 $aMathematical Models of Cognitive Processes and Neural Networks$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13100 606 $aSociology, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22000 615 0$aPhilosophy of mind. 615 0$aCognitive psychology. 615 0$aIndustrial psychology. 615 0$aNeural networks (Computer science) . 615 0$aSociology. 615 14$aPhilosophy of Mind. 615 24$aCognitive Psychology. 615 24$aIndustrial and Organizational Psychology. 615 24$aMathematical Models of Cognitive Processes and Neural Networks. 615 24$aSociology, general. 676 $a128.2 702 $aBronner$b Gérald$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDi Iorio$b Francesco$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300616203321 996 $aThe Mystery of Rationality$92141336 997 $aUNINA
