Rating: 3 Summary: Thought provoking but tedious.Comment Von Eckardt presents many important ideas to consider about the nature of cognitive science as a field, but once you get past the introduction of these ideas, the discussion of them is quite tedious. Chapter 1 is a sufficient treatment for most readers. Additionally, in her focus on "adult, normal, typical cognition," von Eckardt ignores much of the scope of cognitive science in her treatment.
