Shapes of forms

from gestalt psychology and phenomenology to ontology and mathematics

Edición de la obra Shapes of forms

The development of research connected with artificial intelligence and the cognitive sciences obliges us to confront further components of the traditional problem of form. In particular, the debate about bottom up and top down processes seems to suggest that the difference in cognitive processes is more a difference of degree than of kind internally to a form, i.e. a structure, consisting of different layers. Even if there is no single or fundamental theory of forms, in this volume the concept of form is analyzed in different fields (ranging from ontology to language, mathematics, and psychology), and in its different aspects according to a more modern theory of knowledge. Audience: Systematic Philosophers, Philosophers of Language, Psychologists, Linguists.
