Originally published in 1988, this was the first book to examine the development, application and evaluation of computer counselling and psychotherapy. Integrating concepts of artificial intelligence and psychotherapy, this book provided extensive research data that compared the human therapist to the computer therapist at the time.

Wagman offers a critical analysis of current theory and research in the psychological and computational sciences, directed toward the elucidation of scientific discovery processes and structures. It discusses human scientific discovery processes, analyzes computer scientific discovery processes, and makes a comparative evaluation of the two. This work examines the scientific reasoning of the discoverers of the inhibition mechanism of gene cont...

In an evaluation of the strengths and limitations of artificial intelligence in a number of intellectual domains, Wagman draws comparisons with human cognitive ability in those domains, and assesses its role as a theoretical model, as a collaborator, or as a competitor of the human mind. This book distinguishes itself in its structured and detailed account of advancing intellectual developments in the science of artificial intelligence as oppo...

A critical examination of the advancing intellectual developments in artificial intelligence and evaluation of their salient philosophical and psychological implications. This book contains a wealth of research and theory across major domains of cognition that support the broad intellectual artificial intelligence objective of developing a structured and detailed unified science of human and computational intelligence.The significant philosoph...

This text presents a unified theory of artificial and human intelligence under which the nature of human reasoning, problem solving, analogical thinking and scientific discovery is examined from theroetical, research and computational perspectives.

This volume presents a critical analysis of current theory and research in psychological and computational sciences addressing reasoning processes. Distinguished from narrowly technical books on the one hand, and from general philosophical books on the other, this work gives a broad, structured, detailed, and critical account of advancing intellectual developments in theories on the nature of reasoning. The author concludes that artificial int...

This is a comprehensive analysis of current theory and research in the psychological, computational and neural sciences directed towards the elucidation of the structures and processes of language and thought. Chapters discuss language comprehension and artificial intelligence.

Wagman gives a broad, structured, and detailed account of advancing intellectual developments in both psychological and computational theories of the nature of problem- solving. Known for originating the PLATO computer-based Dilemma Counseling System, psychologist Wagman is the author of 17 books, including Scientific Discovery Processes in Humans and Computers (Praeger, 2000).

A critical evaluation of the salient contributions of cognitive psychology and artificial intelligence to the elucidation of the nature of conceptual thought.

A scholarly examination of the centrality of the mind-body problem within and across the science of cognition-from philosophy to psychology to artificial intelligence to neural science. Conceptions of the mind-body problem range from the heritage of Cartesianism to the identification of the circumscribed brain structures responsible for domain specific cognitive mechanisms. Neither narrowly technical nor philosophically vague, this is a struct...

Compares the two realms of human intellect and artificial intelligence, identifies consonant and disparate modes of cognition, and delineates a general theory of human and artificial intelligence.

Examines the nature of cognition using methods of experimental cognitive psychology and theoretical models of computational psychology. This book explains the nature and objectives of artificial intelligence, and reviews concepts and research in human learning and learning systems.

Wagman examines the emulation of human cognition by artificial intelligence systems. The book provides detailed examples of artificial intelligence programs (such as the FERMI System and KEKADA program) accomplishing highly intellectual tasks.

This study presents the tenets and research of the general unified theory that embraces both human and artificial intelligence across the cognitive domains of scientific discovery processes. It covers inductive and deductive reasoning, and the mechanisms in analogical thinking and problem solving

Focuses on distinguished quotations representing the best thinking in philosophy, psychology, and artificial intelligence from classical civilization to contemporary cognitive science.

The advancement of knowledge concerning the complexities of human intellective processes can best be achieved by combining theory and research from the disciplines of cognitive psychology and artificial intelligence. Wagman explores various aspects of these disciplines.

Stars have been identified by astronauts for centuries, but many of those celestial names have disappeared from modern star catalogues. Lost Stars goes in search of the forgotten and misplaced stars discovered and named by such pioneering astronomers as Johannes Bayer, Nicholas-Louis de Lacaille, and John Flamsteed.Explained in detail is how and why certain stars have seemed to vanish from scientific view since the first modern star atlas and ...
