Trusting the Subject?

The Use of Introspective Evidence in Cognitive Science, Volume 1

Anthony Jack and Andreas Roepstorff, Editors

Introspective evidence is still treated with great suspicion in cognitive science. This book is designed to encourage cognitive scientists to take more account of the subject's unique perspective, and includes contributions from biological cybernetics, cognitive neuroscience, neuropsychology, philosophy, psychiatry, and psychology. Anthony Jack is a research associate at Washington University in St. Louis; Andreas Roepstorff is assistant professor, Centre of Functionally Integrated Neuroscience, Aarhus University, Denmark.
