Jerry Fodor

Book Summary by: AcaDemon    


This paper examines how, since the beginning of his career in the early 1960's, Jerry Fodor has been able to produce a number
of discrete arguments regarding cognitive science and philosophy of the mind. It also looks at how in 1983 Fodor published his book "Modularity of the Mind" and argued that many low-level, peripheral systems of the mind are modular. It also looks at how in 1987 his "Psychosemantics" was published and how within it, he made a strong case for the causal theory of reference.
