Promise and Achievement in Cognitive Science

Abstract

Abstract Just over thirty years ago, only a few days after arriving in the United States, I was rummaging through secondhand books in a bookshop in Cambridge, Massachusetts. One of the volumes had an unpleasantly rough-textured binding, made of a hideous rust-brown fabric (coffee-stained to boot). Heavy underlining defaced almost every page. It was a most unattractive object. Why I picked it up, I shall never know. But it changed my life.
