In Praise of the Cognitive Emotions (Routledge Revivals)

Meer over het boek

Challenging conventional views on education and rationality, this collection of fourteen essays emphasizes the importance of critical thought. The author defends rationality as the ability to understand principles and evaluate them based on relevant reasons, rather than merely as a cognitive function. Covering diverse topics like the role of computers in education, mathematics, metaphor, and morality, the essays collectively advocate for a deeper understanding of rationality's role in educational practices.
