Where are nature's joints? Finding the mechanisms underlying categorization
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 June 2010
Abstract
Machery argues that concepts are too heterogeneous to be a natural kind. I argue that the book does not go far enough. Theories of concepts assume that the task of categorizing warrants a unique set of cognitive constructs. Instead, cognitive science must look across tasks to find a fundamental set of cognitive mechanisms.
