In this collection, leading experts evaluate the status of this new field, providing a critical analysis of its most controversial hypotheses. These hypotheses have far reaching implications for cognition, including a modular view of the mind, which rejects, in its extreme form, any general learning or reasoning abilities. Some evolutionary psychologists have also proposed content-dependent accounts of conditional reasoning and probabi 410 0$aCurrent issues in thinking & reasoning. 606 $aCognitive psychology 606 $aGenetic psychology 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCognitive psychology. 615 0$aGenetic psychology. 676 $a155.7 701 $aOver$b D.
