"While various critiques of the cognitive science model of the mind have been put forth, Vinod Goel is the first scholar to challenge cognitivism on its own turf. Cognitivists will ignore this work at their peril; having attended to it, cognitivists must then attempt to answer it as well." -- Howard GardnerProfessor of Education, Harvard University, author of The Mind's New Science
"Vinod Goel sets forth an important argument against the computational theory of mind....His incisive analysis explores uncharted territory and poses serious challenges for computational theories of cognition." -- Stephen E. PalmerDirector, Institue of Cognitive Studies, University of California
"Goel has made an important contribution to releasing us from the grip of an overly formalist conceptualism." -- Brain Cantwell Smith, Xerox PARC and Department of Philosophy, Standford University
