The Cambridge Handbook of Computational Cognitive Sciences

Ron Sun is Professor of Cognitive Science at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, New York. He has published numerous papers and books in cognitive sciences, including The Cambridge Handbook of Computational Psychology (Cambridge University Press, 2008). He was the recipient of the 1991 David Marr Award from Cognitive Science Society and the 2008 Hebb Award from International Neural Networks Society. He is a fellow of APS, IEEE, and other professional organizations.

'Ron Sun shines fresh light on the complex mechanisms underlying human cognition, marshaling expositions from a broad range of experts. Volume 1 shows the diversity of paradigms that can be employed, from neural networks to Bayesian methods to dynamic systems, and then shows how these can be applied to model the underlying mechanisms. While these chapters alone would be worth the price of admission, Volume 2 then offers a rich array of further payoffs in areas ranging from vision, motor control and emotion to creativity and, even, morality.'
