SynopsisWhat is the future of psychology? Will it continue to splinter into increasingly disparate camps or find new common ground? This book brings together leading experts--including Roger Sperry, Stephen Kosslyn, and Gordon Bower--to answer such questions., The editors of this book invited some of the most distinguished cognitive scientists of our day to be frankly speculative about how they see their field in the year 2001. Contributors discuss topics that range from artificial intelligence and memory to gene splicing and cognitive development. Whilst wide ranging, the central theme is the nature of human cognition - and the nature of the field of cognitive psychology - and how they may change over the next century., What would happen if someone brought together the finest minds in psychology to reflect on the past century and speculate on the future of the field in the twenty-first century? Robert Solso and Dominic Massaro did just that, and the result is this fascinating, insightful, and sometimes humorous collection of essays from leading psychologists, among them Gordon Bower, Howard Gardner, Richard Gregory, Earl Hunt, Stephen Kosslyn, Jean Mandler, Donald Norman, Roger Shepard, Roger Sperry, and Robert Sternberg. American psychology recently reached its centennial, and these contributions offer a glimpse of what sorts of developments and innovations we can expect over the next century. For anyone with a professional or personal interest in psychology, this wide-ranging work will provoke thought and discussion about the shape of psychology as we approach the next century., The editors have invited some of the most distinguished cognitive scientists of our day to be frankly speculative about how they see their field in the year 2001. Contributors discuss topics that range from artificial intelligence and memory to gene splicing and cognitive development. While wide ranging, the central theme is the nature of human cognition - and the nature of the field of cognitive psychology - and how they may change over the next century.
