5.0 out of 5 stars A Staple of Philosophy of Psychology August 25, 2008
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is one of Fodor's greatest early works. He argues that our best psychology requires that we posit a "language of thought," which is central to his computational theory of mind. Through this book, Fodor deserves much credit in advancing the program of taking internal mental processes seriously. It is essential reading for many, but especially anyone interested philosophy of psychology.
