This book explores the idea that we have two minds - automatic, unconscious, and fast, the other controlled, conscious, and slow. In recent years there has been great interest in so-called dual-process theories of reasoning and rationality. According to such theories, there are two distinct systems underlying human reasoning - an evolutionarily old system that is associative, automatic, unconscious, parallel, and fast, and a more recent, distinctively human system that is rule-based, controlled, conscious, serial, and slow. Within the former, processes the former, processes are held to be innate and to use heuristics that evolved to solve specific adaptive problems. In the latter, processes are taken to be learned, flexible, and responsive to rational norms. Despite the attention these theories are attracting, there is still poor communication between dual-process theorists themselves, and the substantial bodies of work on dual processes in cognitive psychology and social psychology remain isolated from each other. This book brings together leading researchers on dual processes to summarize the state-of-the-art, highlight key issues, present different perspectives, explore implications, and provide a stimulus to further work. It includes new ideas about the human mind both by contemporary philosophers interested in broad theoretical questions about mental architecture and by psychologists specialising in traditionally distinct and isolated fields. For all those in the cognitive sciences, this is a book that will advance dual-process theorizing, promote interdisciplinary communication, and encourage further applications of dual-process approaches.

'Denken' is een actieve zoektocht naar zin en betekenis, aldus Hannah Arendt in Denken, het eerste deel van haar trilogie ?Het leven van de geest?.Waarom laten we ons in met een activiteit die niet alleen geen enkele waarheid oplevert, maar die tegelijkertijd ook geen enkel praktisch nut dient? In Denken, het eerste deel van haar trilogie ?Het leven van de geest?, buigt Hannah Arendt zich over het denken. Levert denken iets op? Zet het aan tot handelen? Lost het de problemen van de wereld op? Heeft het nut?Doorgaans wordt het denken omschreven als passieve contemplatie. Arendt maakt een onderscheid tussen resultaatgericht denken, gericht op nut en kennisverwerving, en een bezinnend denken dat zijn betekenis en waarde niet laat afhangen van het resultaat. Denken is een actieve zoektocht naar zin en betekenis.Arendt legt in 'Denken', vertaald door Dirk de Schutter en Remi Peeters, de waarde aard van het denken bloot. Alleen moet zij daarvoor breken met dominante tradities in de filosofiegeschiedenis. Vele filosofen en schrijvers maken in dit boek echter opwachting: ze vormen de levende gesprekspartners in Arendts denkervaring. Dat is haar onderzoek, naar eigen zeggen ?een ontmanteling van de traditionele filosofie, bovenal: de schriftelijke neergang van een lang uitgesponnen gedachtegang.Samen met 'Willen' en 'Oordelen' vormt denken de mentale activiteiten die Arendt centraal stelt in ?Het leven van de geest?, de trilogie waaraan zij tot op de laatste dag van haar leven werkte.http://www.uitgeverijklement.nl/boek/denken/

"In Ungifted, cognitive psychologist Scott Barry Kaufman--who was relegated to special education as a child--sets out to show that the way we interpret traditional metrics of intelligence is misguided. Kaufman explores the latest research in genetics and neuroscience, as well as evolutionary, developmental, social, positive, and cognitive psychology, to challenge the conventional wisdom about the childhood predictors of adult success. He reveals that there are many paths to greatness, and argues for a more holistic approach to achievement that takes into account each young person's personal goals, individual psychology, and developmental trajectory. In so doing, he increases our appreciation for the intelligence and diverse strengths of prodigies, savants, and late bloomers, as well as those with dyslexia, autism, schizophrenia, and ADHD. Combining original research, anecdotes, and a singular compassion, Ungifted proves that anyone--even those without readily observable gifts at any single moment in time--can become great."--From publisher description
